OK on that. We all have our methods and that can vary
depending on where we are DFing. But, my question
was about the particular type/style/model of COMPASS
that you and others use/might use for their own DF'ing
antenna.
Some may not use a compass at all, and some may
choose anything in between. Some may use a "boat compass"
and others something else.
So, guys, what style/type/model works best for YOU if you
use a compass?
