Instructions for Lensatic Compass

TO TAKE A FIX: Using the compass

hairline, sight on a prominent landmark

or feature shown on a map. Read the

magnetic dearing from the front of the

compass dial.

For example, assume you're sighting on

a lighthouse and the bearing to the light-

house in 40°. Now place the compass

on the map so that lighthouse is on

wire-line and Ns is parallel to the magnetic 

north line on the map. Your location is on the dotted line.
