On page 44 of the book, the DR long is 133 degrees 46 minutes. The GHA is 487 degrees 21.9 minutes. The a- long in the book is selected as 134 degrees 21.9 minutes. Since 46 minutes is within 30 minutes of the 21.9 minutes of the GHA, wouldn't the correct a-long be 133 degrees 21.9 minutes?

I chose to keep the a-Lon near the working area.
