Ja, that Sun, moon and star radius settings looks to be scaled to a reference distance (not RL true distance) that the developers have used in the program.
It looks like this information is probably impossible to find - I think that it's in the C:\Program Files\SH3\data\Terrain\Data\TerrainData.BFD file (241MB).

Alternatively what I'll have to do is set up a few (hundred or more ) sub positions in the mission editor and track the stars,sun and moon for accuracy. I also heard some time ago that they were a fairly accurate presentation and I'll see if they match up to an almanac and star charts. Hopefully this'll be the case.
The map, I think, will have to be the SH3 in game map. I'll have to edit it with Longitude and Latitude lines.
Anyway back to the grindstone...
Ah! I've been PROMOTED to 'Nub'
