#243068 - 03/13/12 07:02 PM Magnetic Compass Accuracy
Outdoor_Quest Enthusiast Registered: 08/17/09 Posts: 305 Loc: Central Oregon	Does anyone have any data, information, sources, and referenes regarding the accuracy of a hand held magnetic compass? I'd like to compare the accuracy of the basic ball compass, the Brunton baseplate type (e.g., 8010G) and the Silva Rangers. Blake www.outdoorquest.blogspot.com
