TRUE NORTH!!!!!

> Guys, discuss this as much as you wish, but PLEASE, the correct word is DEVIATION, NOT
> DECLINATION. If the DEVIATION is WEST, you ADD it to the compass indication. If it is EAST,
> SUBSTRACT it from the compass indication.
Wrong.  An alternative term is Variation.  Deviation is something
