Evening passes will be the reverse. On the days when there are two passes, they are both low, and you won't be able to work the one before or after. On the days with a single pass shown it is a very high pass and there will be one before and after (100 minutes). Taking these in mind, consider your location in your time zone. If you are on the eastern edge, then the earlier pass will be better and the unprinted earlier pass will also be good. To the west of your timezone, the later passes are better. As the months progress, you can also shift earlier by 3 minutes per month for best accuracy. The tables above were generated at the center of their time zones 120, 109, 94, and 78 degrees west at about 40 degrees latitude and for passes above 25 degrees or so. Bob, WB4APR
