Im trying to locate astra 2d and need to know the magnetic variance as well as its position from my location.
Ive been to many azimuth calculators and put in my longitude latitude positions. no luck at all ? As they are all American based, they work from true north and the astra position is 28.2 east of true south.
ok. i know all about 360, 180 degrees etc, but the calculations are different from each site i try.
so far Astra 2D could be anywhere from 32 degrees east up to 37 degrees east of my location (which is a lot of sky to wade through).
Can any one point me to a calculator that isn’t American and is simple to use.
or even better, let me know what the position (and magnetic variance) is from my location.
Rhyd y foel, N Wales lat 53.2771, long -3.6326
i would really, really be grateful for any help
cheers
