That said, my fixes are indeed not totally exact (allowing for possible measurement error), so I can understand what you are saying about the declination being fundamentally different than reality, which is unfortunate. But at least for the moment not wildly off, and still workable.

After correcting Sun.txt, everything will work fine together with Sun almanac, which I compiled specifically for SH5.
