Sure would be handy if you could take your iPhone up the tower - place the phone in line with the antenna boom - just off the tower (maybe with a nice holder to keep it in place - bungee?). Then access a compass App that would tell you the true direction (magnetic auto corrected by location). Would have to insure the iPhone and App were not affected by being close to the aluminum boom or the tower. Has anyone ever done this with the iPhone and a compass App - accurately/ successfully? 73, Tim K3LR _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
