    I found I had shifted my GST values by two rows in my computation.
    Either add about 0h 02m to RA values (geocentric - more at close range)
    or get a new table (which requires SkyMap time 16:00 UTC on Nov.13!)
    http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle/1600UTC.trj
    ( = http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle/Rosetta.trj)
    
    Both are DOS text files, but Rosetta.trj has Unix line feeds only.
    (1600UTC.trj should be transferred in binary mode)
    If your download does not create single CRLF, try the other file.
