Magnetic variation computation
For SP-89, 92+, V200 and SP-PC in all versions newer than Nov 20, 2002, StarPilot will now compute magnetic variation for a given date and location. This feature is not available in the SP-86. Use the free update option if you wish to add this functionality. The SP-PC computes all aspects of the magnetic field; the calculator versions compute only the variation and its annual rate of change. The data are valid for dates between 2000 and 2005. After that date a new update can be downloaded from starpath.com.
============
new version now online for 2010 to 2015 as of mar 23 2010. Note this does not affect other functions of the device, and you can always use 2009 for the variation and be within a degree.
