I think you may be onto something Greg, although much slower than an integrated machine. Using calculators/software with the DR as the AP, and making a Mariner's Marker on that point and then a series of range and bearings for each body.
I seem to remember Longitude by Chromometer/Time sights were fairly limited by the body needing to be bearing nearly E/W no? It's been a long time since I've done one.
In any case, I will see if I can give feedback to the company. I don't know if I'll be able to experiment for awhile however.
