Hi Gang
Does anyone know of a website or place where I can identify the magnetic
variation of a given QTH from True North?
I need a source that will list this information globally - not just for North
America.
Magnetic variation is the deviation from **true North** that one sees on a
compass reading for due North. Here in NY, for example, I think it is about
13 degrees to the WEST of TRUE North.
This information can be very useful when siting a four square or a vertical
array with a tight/narrow pattern.
Does anyone know of a website where I can PLUG IN latt/longitude coordinates
and have the site "spit out" the variation in degrees?
Many thanks for the help.
