Dear Ed,
a little analysis about your lunar sights.
For all the sights:
For sights 1,6,8,10 (bracket):
Geocentric lunar distance for 29/01/2019
R2 =1
and the equation is LDc = -0.4821*t + 30.995
Attached: Average observations1.xlsx
And the solution for time using the average (sights 1,6,8,10)
11:15:28 24º 48.5'
error = 1s
Regards.
