- If you got BEV and want DN or vice versa (point to 9 o'clock for BEV) DN will be 10 O'clock - I like to use BEV as a 9 O'clock reference even that I never had 91 or 82 - International East will be 8 O'clock - International West will be 11 O'clock - Who need a compass anymore just locate one Sat and follow King's Clock - King's Clock is not copy righted I should of but what the hick I figure I'll give you a feebie
Hey King Nice Clock. Two questions. 1) Your Clock does it run on batteries or 110 Volts? 2)I thought that 6:00 O'clock was True South, Azimuth at 180.o plus or minus Magnetic Deviation. EchoStar 3 at 61.5 Azimuth (True North) is 157 plus or minus the Magnetic Deviation, then how can it be that your Clock shows EchoStar 3 located at 8:oo O'clock? I guess you have a defectived Clock.
Not at all In your home town, state will be totally different from someone in NY or Califrnia. That is what Azmith is all about. It is finding the straight point facing all Satellite locations. Each State will face Satellite differently.
- You find true north (including Mag. Dev) - Count your Azmith Degrees - Then Locate Sat. 91°W like normally do - Print King's Clock - Reference 91°W as 9 O'clock - Bingo you find references all other Sats
It is the methode used in ancient civilizations, still been used today. I thought you were Greek you'll understand it right away. But it is OK I just explained it. How else you'll reference Angle degrees to any Clock? You can now trust The King's Clock Listen I'm only having fun but true it is Acurate. LOL
Hey King If I lived in La or Ny, wouldn,t South still be located at 180.o from either location? I do understand about the azimuth is based on your location to scan in these Satellites. Where I live at the East Coast, EchoStar 61.5 is located by the clock around 3 o'clock. Now where on earth does a person have to live, to point it to 8;00 o'clock,like your clock shows?
Hey King BTW in the ancient civilization there were no Satellites.By using a clock, how in the hell can anyone find the Magnetic North? These Birds are about 22,000 miles above the Equator. Even with a Satellite meter, people have trouble to hit the Arch. Now can you explain to this nice people how in the hell they can do it with a clock?
Kavin I'll make you a simple illustration and to all the nice people. Explaining is what I do best. I can't do it on the week end because it is my family time.
I'll have it ready for you on Monday.
Just to clear one quick point - Time is an ancient design - Compass is an ancient design - Navagation is an ancient design - Angles in degrees is also an ancient design - Satellites is a modern design. I was referencing Sats located in angles and degrees as clocwise with respect to location and navagation.
