	SOLVE TVMDC calculator makes magnetic compass correction of compass error solving magnetic compass variation and ...
		After only a few moments of experimentation with this navigation tool you will be able to solve tvmdc, correct magnetic compass error and make magnetic compass corrections of correct variation and deviation, find course to steer and convert relative bearings to true bearings easily, quickly and accurately with a turn of only three dials.
		A simplified explanation of true course, the magnetic compass, compass error and compass correction of correct variation and deviation and relative bearings is given on this navigation tool.
		A video is also available from Navigation Aid which among other details, illustrates correct variation and deviation, explains solve tvmdc and how it relates to true north and magnetic north, shows an example of relative bearings, explains magnetic compass error, magnetic compass correction, and demonstrates the use of the Course Conversion Calculator.
