All the best for the next 12 months.

Actually I could - I would be interested in finding a way as I could use
this to calculate sun position for sun noise measurements for
microwaves.
You are so short sighted Reg - as normal (sic)

I have one of those, but it's out of date now.
Thought it might have come in useful for something.

Not always EXACTLY in the E or W. It depends on the time
of year.
Then again, where IS the exact E or W?
Sorry I can't help, Nigel.

Maybe, by my PC's here are all synchonised to "net time" on a daily basis. I
am not going to comment about the accuracy of net time, but enough to say
that the clock at work is specified to be more accurate than 1 second in
1071 years - if anyone will be around to care.
