Where does the error lie? What am I doing wrong? Why are LocusMap maps showing the wrong azimuth?
I am standing on a hill, LocusMap shows to the second hill azimuth in a straight line of 250 degrees. The compass in LocusMap shows a different azimuth - to the second hill as much as approx. 263-282 degrees. Smartphone is level vertically and horizontally. The compass built into the smartphone's firmware shows the same value as the compass in LocusMap. I aim through the magnetic physical compass in my hand and it shows the same value as the smartphone's compass. Why are LocusMap maps showing the wrong azimuth? The difference varies from 10 to 25 degrees of azimuth despite accurate aiming.
