I'm not certain if I'm using HO-249 Vol 1 correctly for sight reduction.
For instance- tonight, 12/30/2014 I took a site of Vega. Here are the particulars;
GMT- 23:26:11
Ho- 19d 26.1min
GHA- 90d 53min
AP Longitude- W075d
LHA- 15d
When reviewing HO 249 Vol. 1 for N39d and LHA 15d the only close LHA reference to Vega is an LHA of 14d.
Is the answer- "you should've gotten out there earlier?"
