How accurate and reliable are those things? I'll bet they are not

Good for guesses, but I wouldn't even want to build a house with one, let

Sorry if I step on any toes with this.


Guess you would never ride with me in my RV-6 then because that is what
I used. On July 14 I will have been flying it for 16 years so I guess
they must work. You are right I would never build a house with one.:-)


They were good enough for 2 degree spacing for satellite antenna
alignments. Course 2 degrees at 22,300 miles is a far piece and that was
over 20 years ago...
