> > K4VUD asks: > > What happens when the earth's mag. poles shift > those of us who line up with true north could care less, beam headings won't change and the north star will still be close enough to true north. those of you still trying to figure out which direction to adjust your magnetic heading can start to figure out how far true north is from magnetic south! if course in the process of shifting there may be a short period when we have to discuss how to aim beams based on magnetic east and west poles. -- David Robbins K1TTT (ex KY1H) k1ttt@berkshire.net or robbins@berkshire.net http://www.berkshire.net/~robbins/k1ttt.html -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: towertalk@contesting.com Administrative requests: towertalk-REQUEST@contesting.com Problems: owner-towertalk@contesting.com Search: http://www.contesting.com/km9p/search |
