I have been using the LX7007 and the compass module this year and I can report that is appears to work quite well - how well is not easy to say without doing extensive tests. It is useful to be made aware of wind shifts that can indicate convergence, or the best direction to search for wave etc. Obviously the higher the wind strength the more accurate the vector calculation will be, I would be interested to see the results of any testing that has been done?
