Fair enough Robbie! Another good tip, however I just picked my wedge up last week (was on back order for months), and apparently the compass is different to the last type. When did you get your wedge?
Anyway, I agree that its not worth risking and needs to be accurate so I too purchased a different one and also different spirit level(s).
I believe the major issue with the Meade compass was the lack of correction for Magnetic Dip. This is casued when you move poles (as in Sorthern) and it hasnt got dip compensation (something that top quality ones do have).
