Thanks Jared, It wasn't just the mechanics of recording the time. It was also making an accurate decision as to when coincidence was achieved. I resorted to the trick of waiting for the sun to just touch itself in the artificial horizon. Against a natural horizon, one would wait for the sun to rise above it or settle to it, when shooting the lower limb. I still haven't gotten very good with stars and planets in this regard; those might be a bit easier with the advent of spring! Fred
