Just to clarify the (incorrect) compass orientation in the close up photo of the compass. The bezel should really have been rotated 180 deg so that S would be at the top of the photo with E on the left.

As it stands, it is incorrect as an absolute reference. However, pictorially it does indicate that for me in Brisbane, the SCP (axis of rotation) is some 11 deg E of the magnetic S Pole and that is the setting I require.

Cheers

Dennis
