After looking at Antoine's work, I recalculated for the Sun starting with your Ha instead of using your Hc, doing my own correction. (The late Stan Kline's program was very helpful.) I now get 60d 10.0'N, 28d 47.8 E. Much better.
Now at 1215, Sun 32d 24.17'
The differences between my Sun Hc and yours in minutes are:
