George:
Just in case my earlier response noting that two determinations of Dhs at times bracketing LAN
wasn't satisfactory, I'll attach the plot. Again, the choice of using only one
determination was a simplification. If anyone ever uses this method for the
moon, two determinations would be a necessity.
I may gradually give away the complete contents of the book. But the
attached figure does better describe the method than mere prose. A picture is
worth how many words?
