compass rose 13.45 W variation
Posted 2025, Jul 08 18:28
maybe its my chart copy , but I read the variation as 13 degrees 45 ' W. ... but in the exercise it is stated as 13.45... which we just learned is not the same (minutes vs decimals). It may not make a huge difference for the sake of this exercise , but if we are adjusting for many years, that will make quite a difference. .. thanks!
