Oh i understand...

I think he dont know how to look at a compass...
The needle always points to N rite ? if im not mistaken...
So u need to stand and turn the compass until the needel is pointing to N the nonly u know where is E,W,S.....

Lolz am i correct?

Exactly! u must position yourself so that the red needle is pointing to North, then only u can know the other direction.

oh i know what he mean. The car compass is located on the dashboard. So when u read the compass, you are reading from the back of the compass. he's question is,  the reading that facing you is refer to the front of the car or the back of the car?

Oh.. so thats what is he asking about..
Hmm.. if the compass is facing side (not top), and the needle points UP which is to the NORTH, then that shows you're heading NORTH if u go toward front.

correct me if im wrong smile.gif
