It seems that another bug was found in the halley program posted
a couple of weeks ago. I wish to thank David Bryant for bringing
it to my attention, and for supplying the fix at the same time.
In the section: "ECLIPTIC COORDINATES", the 8th line down:
IS : Q2 = (Q3 * 180) / PI + P1;
SHOULD BE: Q2 = (Q3 * 180) / PI + J + 180;
Sorry for the inconvenience....
Clear Skies,
