I'm not sure where you would've seen that, Pete.

The Moon Phase page shows the rise and set times of the Moon and Sun based on your lat/long ?

Gday Mozzie


As you have the LX90, if you just load the "Sun as an asteroid"
you can bring up the asteroid, hit enter and it will calc the current RA and DEC for you.
Then just hit goto and you are there
( Thats assuming you have covered all the finders etc first ;) )
