Frank,
You earlier wrote:
" and you will discover comparably large errors in the angles [except at one latitude... anyone?]. " .
I submitted this reply :
" ...///... Latitudes very close from N54°47' and S54°47' "
Apparently not .. my guess was not right.
Rather than digging out such Latitudes (if any, I should say) by brute force method - e.g. through trial and error for every minute degree of Latitude - it is certainly smarter to think better.
Your solution Frank ? since as per your wording you should have one ?
Thanks in advance,
Kermit
