Re: [IRCA] Beverage antenna/ALA 100

I like using Google Earth. Draw a line from your QTH over the pole, then go
back to your QTH, zoom in, and see where your antenna is pointed with
respect to the line you drew. 73,

Walt,

I knew the Magnetic North was different than True North, but I had no
idea, it was "That" much different. I fiqred maybe 5 degrees. Then if I
am sitting at the beverage running 60-70 deggres, does that knock it off
by 15 deggres farther to the East? In other words, if the Magnetic North
via the Compus is at 65 degrees, the Beverage is really looking at 80
degrees?

73,

Patrick
