TIP
Using the compass to locate the Sonde requires free space to walk to the side of the Sonde. If there is an
obstacle such as a wall or vehicle that restricts walking in an arc, the following method can be used.
Position the locator in the approximate vicinity of the Sonde as above.
Rotate the locator so that the compass is now pointing at 3 o’clock.
Now step to the side keeping the locator pointing in the same direction. The compass will rotate slightly.
Keeps the locator pointing in the same direction and walk forward. The compass will slowly rotate. When
it reaches 12 o’clock follow the compass keeping it at 12 o’clock.
