As promised my next set of lunars taken from "the bridge":
Start time around 11:16 GMT; 11 December 2005
Moon Far and Mars IE 1.0 min on arc
Sight # Error in Lunar Error in Lon
1 0.2 min 5.1 min
2 -0.3 min -09.7 min
3 0.2 min 06.0 min
4 -0.1 min -03.6 min
5 0.3 min 08.0 min
6 -0.2 min -06.5 min
HE was 14 feet, temperature 75 degrees F
This is a much narrower spread I think than the last lot.
Cleared online using Frank's wonderful page.
Ds was around 9d 45m to 9d 48.5m
Interestingly the error are now about even between + and minus.
Regards
Mike
