Actually this is a great reference. They have a software download that will
give you that day's...so you could work out the factors according to Bucher
and then test to see if you were right...hmmm, I might have a go at that,
too. Where did you get your moonrise and moonset info for your area? I can't
think where I've seen that digitized anywhere before...

Can anyone tell me (or point me to a source) that shows how to
calculate the Major and Minor Peak Times used in solunar tables once
you aleady know the Moon's up and down times. Is is a simple
calculation? I know there's software available to do this nut I'd like
to go thorugh a manual exercise so I understand where the times come
from.
