My only problem is how to tell if my sun line is correct or if my seven different compasses are correct, I am leaning toward the sun but so far the two sunny days that I have had a chance to do a proper line have been somewhat filled with many other things, the first being not long enough sunlight to accurately mark the line and the second being a friend in need of assistance at the precise time of solar noon. Hopefully will be able to get it done this weekend if there is no cloud, I cannot check my alignment with sigma octans as I cannot see it in my light polluted area, I tried some drift alignment with the moon yesterday but cloud got on the way again
