Dear George, I feel that my message on the Frank new method has not reached the list, or is posted in a wrong place of the list. Frank's method is BASED on PARALLAX. It indeed gives you two lines of position, but requires very precise measurement, and the resultilg position is 60 times less accurate than the measurement itself. Alex.
