Steve,
Here is how I solved your problem
1900 GHA = 349-15.4 Difference of 10-44.6
v-corr (+6.9) since by observation it will be closer to 2000 than 1900.
Skimming the incriments & corrections pages it looks like 44 minutes is where we need to be. For that minute I get a v-correction for 6.9 of +5.1'. Subtract 5.1from 10-44.6 and I get 10-39.5. The t-corr for 10-39.5 is 44m 40s. So the answer should be 1944-40.
