AirGhz is what I use...pretty accurate On Oct 5, 2017 1:10 PM, "Josh Reynolds" <j...@kyneticwifi.com> wrote:
Use a compass with a mils scale instead of degrees. Away from the tower, as the tower will skew the direction. There are 360 degrees in a circle, but there are 6400mils in a circle. This is what I used to note target azimuth relative to my position for close air support, artillery, mortars, etc. On Oct 5, 2017 2:04 PM, "Mike Hammett" <af...@ics-il.net> wrote: > With multiple servers it can, even when stationary. > > > > ----- > Mike Hammett > Intelligent Computing Solutions <http://www.ics-il.com/> > <https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL> > <https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb> > <https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions> > <https://twitter.com/ICSIL> > Midwest Internet Exchange <http://www.midwest-ix.com/> > <https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix> > <https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange> > <https://twitter.com/mdwestix> > The Brothers WISP <http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> > <https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp> > > > <https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg> > ------------------------------ > *From: *"Bill Prince" <part15...@gmail.com> > *To: *"Motorola III" <af@afmug.com> > *Sent: *Thursday, October 5, 2017 2:03:06 PM > > *Subject: *Re: [AFMUG] GPS based "compass? <1000$? > > GPS can not give you a magnetic direction unless it is moving.
