HI J, Sure lay 'em on me! I do not think anyone memorizes a Lunar form! I also 
have my own multi-body form. There are infinite combinations of forms but the 
bottom line is for the forms to contain the same info. Thanks much.

My rote memory "forms," for both 229 and 249, have one duplication copying 
only Ho from the Hs-Ho line to below the Hc line to get intercept.  I suppose 
I could forgo this duplication, but it would be a bit more mentally taxing to 
look at numbers from either different columns or far down the same column (I 
often do one or the other).  Otherwise I do no other duplications.



I tend not to use pre-made forms as I find them limiting for different kinds 
of sights.  I pretty much run along for what I need to do and adapt as 
necessary.  For example, for a sunline verses an ex-meridian, I need to 
calculate LHA (or t) for both and use the same basic "form" but I don't 
pre-print anything to accomplish this task, as it varies from there.   I just 
"download" it from my head for each kind of sight.  The only "form" I use 
these days is a Bruce Starke Lunar as I am too much a newbie with them to 
memorize the form yet.



If you'd like, i can try and photograph or scan one of my nav notebook pages to show you how I do it.
