How are subcraters named? Is it based on distance from the primary or radials or ???
For example, there's a crater labeled "C" to the northwest of Copernicus, south of the arc of the Carpathian Mnts. Is that Copernicus C or could it be Mayer C? Or maybe Eratosthenes C?
Thanks!

I drink tea, I read books, I look at stars when I'm not cursing clouds. It's what I do.
