I apologize if this has been mentioned numerous times before, but a  
Handheld GPS can be very useful for setting antennas to North.  For  example, a 
relatively inexpensive Magellan Explorist 200 can be easily set to  "True 
North" or "Magnetic North" and has WAAS accuracy of 3-meters.   Mine is set to 
"True North" and I enjoy using it a lot more than a Magnetic  Compass.
