1797 was just 4 years after the first RHA troops, lettered A to F were formed in 1793.  I'd suggest your best bet in finding where each was stationed would be to enquire at the RA Museum but, like most, they are either not handling queries at present of are taking time to respond.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
