I would have been helpful if the subject stated the correct model you are requesting help for. The HP35 was the first scientific calculator in 1972, while in fact your question is about the HP35s from 2007. As this is the forum on a museum website the original HP35 is discussed even more often than the current model. Anyway – I see this is your first post here, so welcome to the forum. ;-)

Looking at the program I can see only one occurence of the rectangular to polar conversion, that's in line D73. I have not analyzed the complete program, but you may try this to replace line D71...D76:

Code:

...
i          // that's the "i" key with the red letter G on it
RCLx E
RCL+ N
ABS
STO H
LASTx
ARG
STO B
...

I think this will work. But please try it and report your results here.

BTW, you can also replace line D85...D90 of the original listing with

Code:

RCL B
360
RMDR
STO B

Finally, I think that step V12 should not be XEQ C. This calls a subroutine from which the program will never return. And the next time program D is run it calls a subroutine from within a subroutine which never returns. So most probably step V12 should read GTO C instead.
