- Comment/Request
- It would great to have a change option on the start stop time with just as many points but not only 24 hours but 12, 6, 3, & 1 so Solar noon time can be precise. Solar noon can be as much as 16 minutes off from noon but your chart peaks at 12:00 noon. Must fix
also have execute button removed and the enter key after changing a number would execute.

- Purpose of use
- I wanted to calculate the percentage of the major components of the sun's radiation that would get reflected by a reflective shade cloth deployed vertically 1000 feet via baloons and spaced one every mile in an east west deployment in a given area and then calculate how much local cooling effect this could create, possibly making a local air rotation.

- Purpose of use
- Calculate correct position of solar panel. Excellent chart, thank you!
- Comment/Request
- I suggest you add explanation of "time zone" since it does not adjust automatically based on longitude. For example USA Eastern time zone normal designation is "GMT-5:00" but you want me to enter "19" ... How is the user supposed to know this?

- Purpose of use
- Looking for hours of sunlight available to a tree given the sunrise, sunset and angle.
I have found charts for the first two and the last one but not together.
Is this possible?
