Map Holder & Bearing Guide Overlay

Carrying a paper map takes up at least one of your hands, and leaves the map vulnerable to perspiration and the weather. It also provides no support for drawing bearing lines. Eyeballing the correct angles for drawing those bearings is prone to error. Solve all those problems by making a map holder & bearing guide overlay

Reverse-Rose Compass

Placing a reverse rose over the usual compass rose on your compass will allow you to read your antenna’s pointing direction directly from the compass. Attach your “reversed” compass to your antenna with zero facing the antenna’s forward direction. Once that is accomplished the compass’ needle will always point at the magnetic bearing direction value, no calculations required on your part. Discover why and how to create and use your own reversed-rose compass.

Attach Your Compass to Your Antenna

Attaching your compass to your antenna will not only free up a hand or pocket, it will also allow your compass to swing in unison with your antenna. See how WB8WFK did it with a professional-looking compass platform.
