You can also work out what directions your guy wires point, or even what bearing the sides of the tower are at, both of those are easy to use either from the ground or while up the tower to align the

The best way, if you have visible items in satellite maps on Google Earth, is to use the built-in distance and bearing facility. map length to "feet" click the cross-hair over spot 1, then click cro

Yes. I use just regular google maps and right click on the tower base, choose measure distance and then click on the north pole for instance and then zoom in on my qth using satellite view and see wh

Noon by the clock, or noon by the sun (solar time)? Depending on location, the clock can be nearly an hour off particularly if in a state with a skewed time zone, or near the edge of a time zone. Mic

It is nice to have the antennas aimed accurately, however as a contester you never know what country is calling next or exactly what path the signal is taking. Luckily on HF direction is not critical

Right. Hams should study the horizontal and vertical patterns of their antennas. John's antenna is narrower than most. The -3dB points of a typical 3-el Yagi are around +/- 35 degrees. A 4-el Yagi is

This happens all the timeon 10, and I would presume on 15 as well. Particularly in low sunspot years, I've heard and worked Europeans on 10 at 90-95 degrees just before a real band opening. K3ZO has

yup Pete I have worked the skewed or crooked path to Euro on 10/15 many times before it opens on the 45 deg path... mostly EA,I, SV etc.The same path also happens to the west (beam 270 deg) to JA ...

Look a Northern MI, MI, MN, and mountainous regions. In some areas the declination is ridiculous. If you want the actual declination for an area spend some money and get an aeronautical chart for the

It depends on where you are. The north magnetic pole has been moving at the rate of 30-35 miles per year, from northern Canada towards Russia. It was within the Canadian Artic at the turn of the cent

Some day the magnetic pole will flip to the south pole. This will really change the declination numbers! John KK9A find that hard to believe. Its 30 degs for us folks in VE7 land. Same as it always h

The poles don't just flip. There are many anomalous magnetic areas around the world. "Reversals take a few thousand years to complete, and during that time--contrary to popular belief--the magnetic f
