When looking at the stars it seems reasonable to put Alrisha (α, the Knot in Pisces) at the end of side a of the C tablet and to let Hamal (α Arietis) be at the beginning of side b.
I have suggested the beginning of the text on side a was designed to be coordinated with 0h according to the Gregorian calendar:

If we now should put the relevant stars at their proper places according to the Julian calendar, then I must change my structure into:
| σ Andromedae (3.0), ι Ceti (3.3), ζ Tucanae (3.5), ρ Andromedae, π Tucanae (3.7) |

This result puts naskhatra Acrux at Ca1-1 and nakshatra Porrima at Ca1-5 (together with heliacal Delta). It is also pleasing to have nakshatra Arcturus at Cb1-3 and not inside the murky week beyond day 396.
I can still use the Gregorian calendar days in parallel with the glyphs.
My right ascension days at the time of rongorongo can still be kept as before, although to be understood as if they in a way had been counted from March 18 (77) instead of from March 21 (80). Or - if this should be found easier to accept - as if referring to March 21 (80) at a time 3 precessonal days earlier than around 1842 A.D.
