Yes, I spotted Eltanin and Rastaban from memory. It was only when I tried to judge how far out of shot Vega (SHA 81) was that I realised we were talking different calibrations. Never mind, it forced me to learn a new word. If 90° minus an angle is the compliment, and 180° minus an angle is the suppliment, it turns out that 360° minus an angle is the explement! DaveP
