A. The time between local sunrise and sunset is solar noon, in North
America is in the middle.
Therefore any shadow point to True North.
B. With most HF antenna having 3db points for the forward lobe having
the smallest angle of 30 degrees
why are we picking nits over finding magnetic north away from buildings
and the deviation that day to
compute True North to get 1 degree accuracy?
To me on a circuit to ZS or G, it's "good enough" with the old sundial
method from here in Missouri.
Or what am I missing?.
