The variations I was showing (using the same method used by Voliva and essentially the same as the Wiki) had nothing whatever to do with any possible variations over the course of a year, but measurements which can be taken at any one time.
Would that be the method of not actually observing the sun at these different places for your estimate of its position?
I really couldn't care less about the supposed height of the flat earth sun. I have seen no evidence that Voliva actually making any measurements to calculate the height of the sun. He may have. His writings give the sun height as 2,700 miles. The 3,000 miles comes from a Modern Mechanics - Oct, 1931 article referring to Voliva's "work".
Rowbotham did make measurements and his figure was 700 miles and I showed you where he went wrong.
So over to you again, I have pointed out the simple fact that TFES has no idea of the sun height.
There is another "minute problem".
You say that possibly the sun's height is higher, presumably during the southern summer. BUT, the sun's intensity during the southern summer is quite significantly higher than during the northern summer
[1]. How does this higher sun fit with an almost 7% higher solar intensity? It is interesting that in the Globe Earth the sun's minimum and maximum distances are 91 and 94.5 million miles - allowing for the square law it fits pretty well! What a co-incidence.
And no,
I did not measure these myself! I do, however, look carefully into these matters as we have Solar Power and I do monitor the output regularly.
But there are innumerable things in your model
[2] neither
you nor any TFES member have personally measured!
Sometimes I really think that you should shut up shop for a few years and sort all these gross inconsistencies out (including map), then re-open with a
whole bright and shiny new model, not one dreamt up quickly to help counter Darwinism.
