my huge none knowledge of gps was that its got a variance of up to ten feet. If 
thats the case is it a consistent offset so if two receivers are 24 inches 
apart it can calculate an accurate azimuth?

  With multiple servers it can, even when stationary.

  GPS can not give you a magnetic direction unless it is moving. It knows where 
you are, but not which direction something else is unless it has a vector to 
work with (i.e. you're moving).

    I didn't think GPS could give you an accurate direction unless you were 
moving. 
    ....I could be mistaken.

      I already know the manual and visual tricks 

      Is there a reliable unit for verifying azimuth, gps is all i can assume 
that could do this. i see a bunch ranging 3k to 10k that i would guess work 
pretty well, is there anything in the 300-1000 budget range that actually works 
out there?
