I like using Google Earth. Draw a line from your QTH over the pole, then go back to your QTH, zoom in, and see where your antenna is pointed with respect to the line you drew. 73,

I fiqred maybe 5 degrees. Then if I am sitting at the beverage running 60-70 deggres, does that knock it off by 15 deggres farther to the East? In other words, if the Magnetic North via the Compus is at 65 degrees, the Beverage is really looking at 80 degrees? 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL Manager _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
