Hi Mav,

I've been using Omar Reis's Navigator pgm and Starpath's Nav pgm on a TI-86 for years. Recently, Mar 2005, with the birth of SH3 I also added StarCalc for gameplay. I never could get the Cel Nav to work on SH3 or even more recently, SH4.

I suppose a way around the "clock" issue in SH4 is to set dead in the water off a known landmark and goto TC and watch and stop the SUN as it makes it's way to Zenith, then make a Noon Latitude/Longitude sight, using your nav pgm to verify the your coordinates...At meridian passage.

Van's niffty nav pgm has opened the doors to find a sure-fire method of finding your fix in the ocean. It's a step in the right direction.
