Hi Bill. Can you kindly forward this note to the individual maintaining the Astron Celestial program. I teach coastal and celestial nav as part as part of a sailing program in Canada. I noticed that in the latest version of the program V2.221.2021 Dec 1 the main correction for Ha to calculated the observed altitude Ho does not seem to be working properly. In my version it does not change for sun sight LL based on changing the sextant altitude Hs. I found same issue with the excel spreadsheet version and the 2019 version.
Let me know if you need more info. My email barry.messer@shaw.ca
Regards
Barry Messer
