Hi

I am making an armillary sundial for the northern hemisphere and I had a 
question in regards to how to adjust for different longitudes. The longitude 
where the sundial is going to be is 71 degrees. Can I permanently fix the 
calibration of the dial plate 4 degrees counterclockwise allowing only the 
application of the equation of time to accurately tell time? Also this dial 
will be primarily seen during Daylight savings time. Can I fix the dial plate 
with the 1 oclock line on the meridian to compensate for daylight savings time? 
I hope my questions make sense.

Thanks in advance
Sandy
