@ derstosstrupp...

Please examine the following to make sure I understand. ALL CAPS are for my comments. I am not yelling.

"So say you plotted [IN SILENT HUNTER] from 54 deg N, 2 deg E assumed position and got your fix at 53 deg 48’ N and 2 deg 13’ E [IN SILENT HUNTER]. The difference in minutes is 13, so take 13 / cos (53.8) which gives 22. So your fix [IN GOOGLE EARTH] is 53 deg 48’ N, 2 deg 22’ E."

So, do I understand correctly or am I backwards?
