Hello,
I read your message today, that you can provide some user manual help on your web: [dead link]
I tried but it failed. I got a Heath & Hezzanith 1964 Sextant "Endless Rapid Readers" Automatic Clamp. I want to try it out to see it works. I tried out the different telescopes in the Box but I could not see any clear picture. I have used Sextants during my seafaring career with Plath Sextants on the ship. I used to take the noon position with the sun and night position with the different stars.
This Hezzanith Sextant has been offered to me but I have never used it before. I wonder whether someone can help me to get it work.
best regards
Chris
