Today worked out better than I thought it would. I arrived home this afternoon in time to take some sights when the sun was near prime vertical. Also, the sun was completely clear of cloud. I reduced two sights, one on each side of the prime vertical The intercepts were
- 0.4' A Zn = 269.6°
- 0.4' T Zn = 270.4°
I have attached the weorksheets. Note the important number 23 26.1.
Mission successful!
