Did you have to enter your position into your smart phone app every time, just once, or never. I.e. does the smart phone take them from an internal source such as a GPS/WAAS chip? I suppose what I'm really asking is, was the jump in heights measured with the sextant or heights calculated for the assumed position? Dave
