Asunto: Re: [NAV-L] Position from crossing two circles : was [NAV-L] Reality check
As for Andres Ruiz' program, it's of an era that has left me way behind, and I have no hope of following what it does. A few words of explanation might help. Where do the numerical values at the end, two pairs of GHAs, Decs, and altitudes, come in?

George is a test for check the code:
+N/-S
-W/+E
TEST 1
20040219 UT1=2000
Data: 2 observations
Sirius GHA1 = 347.78;
dec1 = -16.72;
HO1 = 19.55;
Procyon
GHA2 = 334.23;
dec2 = 5.22;
HO2 = 28.5;
Results: Lat & Lon of the two points
1(41.9918 º, -30.0057 º)
2(-11.9872 º, 85.1578 º)
TEST 2
20040219 UT1=2000
Data: 2 observations
Aldebaran
GHA1 = 20.06;
dec1 = 16.52;
HO1 = 90-26.87;
Pollux
GHA2 = 332.71;
dec2 = 28.02;
HO2 = 90-48.02;
Results: Lat & Lon of the two points
1(-6.9375 º, -6.8137 º)
2(42.0013 º, -29.9987 º)
