Accurate Declination Tables


Arc

Recommended Posts

Anyone know of a site which can give me accurate declination...So I can setup my compass correctly?

 

Im a stickler when it comes to detail and accuracy, and have had a bitch of a time finding a consistent declination for different areas here in WA.

 

Im just not happy when I get 17.3 from one site, and 17.9 on another.......you and I know thats bs in a way.

 

Anyway.......Just wondering if someone can help me on that.

 

Thanks...

Wow, and I thought I was anal!! You can set your compass to within tenths of degrees? I can't even walk that straight.

 

Seriously, you could probably take a look at any of a dozen sites that sell USGS topo maps, select the "preview map" feature or something similar, scroll to the bottom of the map, and get your information from the compass rose there. Just a thought...
