Thanks for the reminder Frank.
Normally (by Calculator=my preferred Modern solution method) I use the ABC formule.
My question arised because I think the AgetonClassic has only Sin/Cos tables and de Tan from the ABC
formule can not direct be solved with those Tables.
I looked for one calculator free backup calulation with AgetonClassic because thats a cempact table.
So the question was how to solve the General Longitude formula with AgetonClassic.
Lars gave one solution, and I have seen second solution from one other forum.
Greetings,
