Gnarly Gnu Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 Radio navigation set to make global return as GPS backup, because cyber... GPS killed the radio nav in 2010, but a high-def version is set to return. 1
fly_tornado Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 I feel like GNu only posts stuff from snopes
Oksinay Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 I'm keeping my sextant. Could be handy when the lights go out 1
spacesailor Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Don't " forget your "hight of eye" unless it's a bubble sextant. Also good for getting the hight of trees before felling. spacesailor
hihosland Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 My thumb at arms length is roughly 45 degrees. Thus when top of thumb at arms length aligns with top of the tree I am the tree's height distant from the tree's base.
spacesailor Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Quick draw a sketch, so I can visualize you with one arm out in front and a tree in the distance?. spacesailor
kaz3g Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 I would love an ADF so I could listen to the ABC when doing a trip...nice to be able to tune up transmitters that also assist when there is no NDB. I just hope Trump doesn't start a war with that funny tubby fella while I'm away. Kaz
