Re: My spreadsheet. You might not need to wiggle discs. Just add a further column root(diff Hs squared + diff azimuths squared) greater than 32', and theres no partial eclipse. I'm still working on it. To find LL just visible despite partial eclipse will need further thought; it depends on the striking paths. DaveP
