201. On 5 September in DR position LAT 23° 17.0' S, LONG 154° 35.0' E, you observe an amplitude of the Sun. The Sun's center is on the visible horizon and bears 275° per standard magnetic compass. The chronometer reads 07h 49m 26s and is 01m 52s fast. Variation in the area is 3° W. What is the deviation of the standard magnetic compass?
The computed magnetic bearing (280.1 M) exceeds the observed compass bearing (275.0 C) by 5.1, indicating a deviation of 5.1 E.
