However, I didn't include the HP correction table in any of the yearly Nautical Almanac's Increments & Corrections tables on the site.

It was not the HP tables that I was referring to, those were easily found on your site, but the instructions for the HP tables. I seem to remember that the last paper almanac I bought many years ago had instructions, more so than what you see in your PDF of the HP tables. I thought I remembered an explanation with example in the paper Almanac - this was about the year 2002 or so when I had my Astra IIIb. Just A few years ago when I took up CN again I didnt bother applying HP to Gunter moon observations. Recently I re-examined Bowditch and wished to clarify my knowledge of HP - thats when I had the brain fart and couldnt remember how to use the table.... an explanation was not forthcoming.
Anyway, I easily found your HP tables in an appropriate PDF - no problems there... I just couldnt remember how to use them and couldnt find an example or instruction... :)
Roland clarified the procedure flawlessly....
Thanks
