Azimuth Sheet

This document contains information about azimuth, date, time, vessel position, gyro heading, magnetic heading, Greenwich hour angle, local hour angle, and instructions for determining azimuth tables values A, B, C, and Zn based on declination, hour angle, and the names of A and B. It provides a method for naming the values in the azimuth tables based on declination, hour angle, and whether the values are added or subtracted.

ABC Tables A - Named opposite to latitude, Except when hour angle between 90 and 270 degs. B - Always named the Same as declination. C - If A & B same name add together. If A & B different names subtract. C is named the greater of A & B. Naming Zn Takes the name of C and If hour angle between 000 and 180 degs then Zn named W. and If hour angle between 180 and 360 degs then Zn named E. IE Zn = S - - - W
