Tom,

I just took a quick look at model.bas and noticed this:

TilNow# = JulianDay# - 2451545.5#       ' Days since Jan 1, 2000
midnight

If Jan 1, 2000 midnight is 1/1/2000 0h UT, I think it should be
2451544.5. 

I haven't had a chance to test it out (though it does add the 1 day),
but I thought I'd at least mention it in case it's obvious to you (or
someone else) if this is the problem or not.
