On mine its showing 43hr 50 52". Im using Star Finder II ( a program that
came with my sisters telescope) in order to find out where we are recieving
the data from the skies. I didnt find anything due to the fact that it is
only a 24 hr RA. Im not sure if there is a way to calculate the 43 hrs into
a 24 hr time interval in order to pinpoint the location? Sorry if it seems
confusing (belive me, im not even sure if im asking the question right) But
any help at all would be greatful.

You're right, RA is between 0 and 24 hours.

Are you using SetiWatch to see this? If so, that's your problem. I have
the same issue. SetiSpy displays the correct values.

I understood it to be a known issue in some work units as a result of
calculations of the antenna.

I don't know about that, because I've used SetiSpy which correctly shows
the location on the skymap at 13 hours for the same work unit that
SetiWatch shows as being 37 hours. And other times SetiWatch shows the
correct values.

So far (62 work units) SetiSpy has shown the correct values when
SetiWatch shows almost half of them to be beyond 24 hours.
