Ronitz,     Suppose you live at longitude -5 and time zone -15 degrees. Both are East longitudes. Your longitude is 10 west of the time zone meridian.   Then input something llike 70 for longitude and 60 for time zone. Add n*15 degrees both. In this example n = 5. Then the longitude also is 10 west of the time zone meridian.     The drawing should be the same.     Fer J. de Vries   De Zonnewijzerkring mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.de-zonnewijzerkring.nl   Home mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.iae.nl/users/ferdv/index-fer.htm Eindhoven, Netherlands lat.  51:30 N      long.  5:30 E ----- Original Message ----- From: Ronit Maoz To: sundial@rrz.uni-koeln.de Sent: Saturday, May 24, 2003 5:12 PM Subject: Judith Romano's Analemmatic Garden Sundial   Dear Judith Romano and Sundial members, I  tried making the garden sundial , which I found  on the internet, according to the plan given by you (Judith Romano). The figures came out funny... Only then did I read, that this program is intended for Western Longitudes. Is this the reason why the figures didn't fit? If that's the case, is there a way of "correcting" the program or perhaps,  is there  another accurate program for analemmatic garden sundials suitable for Northern Latitudes , Eastern Longtitudes? Sincerely,  Ronit Maoz
