woops...typo. Meant East of England. tnx Georg.

And tnx, van, for the explanation. I'll have to fumble around with it abit to get my sea-legs adjusted.

Georg, the date & time is correct as my pic shows; however, my Windows/print screen function peeled away some of the sun-glare and shows the Sun's position in the middle of the screen (roughly) where I believe, van, is referring with his pic. As you can see, the "Navigator's Star Finder" shows Hc for the Sun as 20° 21.0'. The closest I could get to that was about 29°...also show on my pic. 9° off (540nm) is not too good.

The non-linearity of the screen is (no pun intended) throwing me a curve.
