proposed alternatives, i.e. no. 21 or 23.
Unfortunately the copy I have of page 386 of the
German manual from 1906 is in bad quality and I can't accurately read the
formulas 21 and 23. Beside that it appears to be a "sum-sign" in these
formulas, for which I don't have any explaination.
If I understood the previous discussion correctly
Wolgang Köberer might have the 1906 issue. Wolgang, will you kindly provide the
formulas 21 and 23 and also look for what the assumed "sum-sign" could
mean.
