[time-nuts] Thunderbolt & Lady Heather 48 hour precision survey

[EB4APL]

I did a similar error when trying to change the projection reference 
system of a map of Guatemala.  After a nonsense output I eventually 
found that I had used the wrong sign and the program treated it as it 
was Greece.  The resulting map was more or less side looking!.

Regards,
Ignacio, EB4APL
