I am thinking of buying a vertical compass (not a DG), as a backup in case of electrical failure. Does anyone have any experience with these things? Will it be more stable than my regular magnetic compass? I have heard of "Precision Instruments" and "Hamilton". Are these brands, and if so, is one better than the other (perhaps more reliable)? Thanks in advance. -- Erik Mintz ARPA or CSnet : epm0%gte-labs.csnet@csnet-relay UUCP: ...harvard!bunny!epm0
