    A simple way of setting your DG without the tables, though accuracy does suffer, is to multipy actual GMT time X 15 and then subtract your longitude (if you are West of the prime meridian). Right now at my location it is 19:40z. 15 X 19=285 + 10 (40/60 X 15) =295 degress - local longitude of 130 degrees = 165 degrees True. This is the sun's true bearing (approximately).
