All;
I'm using an old Army magnetic compass to take reading on the antennas and
setup the
correct headings on the shack indicators. Most are probably familiar with
this compass
,there are two partial lines on the face which indicate Magnetic and True.
Question is which is which ? Ture looks to be about 15 degrees east of
Magnetic.But this varies with
location doesn't it ? Any help appreciated. Tnx
