    Hello all,

    First post here !

    1st sight: 14° on the limb and 2' on the vernier. The long line and 5th short align the vernier lines so it's a full minute. Result 14°2'
    2nd sight: 17° on the limb and between 0' and 1' on the vernier. The 3rd short line aligns the vernier so .6'. Result 17°0.6'

    First one is 12 degrees, 02.1 minutes. The ZERO line on the micrometer disk is past the ZERO mark on the drum and the 0.2 ' line has not reached the next mark on the drum.

    Second is 13 degrees, zero point five minutes by the same logic.         13°-00.5'
