[VHFcontesting] North

[Paul Rollinson]

Hi Guys,

 

This may be a stupid question but..

 

Do you calibrate your beam headings for true north or magnetic north?

 

I believe it's true north. If so, what is the degree difference is FN41AU to
the east of magnetic north?

 

I have an issue with my rotor pot and just tried EME pointing the beam using
a compass. Only after did I realize this may have been a mistake. No
contact.

 

Thanks,

 

Paul Rollinson, KE1LI
