Re "prime time", this broadcast was NOT in that interval, or was it?
Re sextants,I have a Davis Mk. 15, that I purchased via Ebay, a number of years back. It works, though it does seem sensitive to grip pressure, and seems to feature wandering index error. It's optics are less than sterling, but useable , and if dropped over the side, I guess it would float too.
The fix you got with that cardboard kit sounds quite good, considering conditions an equipment.
