- Q134 - Navigation Problems: Near Coastal
377. You are taking a time tick using the 1400 signal from Buenos Aires, Argentina. You hear a 0.4 second dash followed by a series of dots, noting that the 29th and the 56th to 59th dots are omitted. At the start of the following 0.4 second dash (which is followed by an 8 second pulse), the comparing watch reads 01h 59m 57s. When compared to the chronometer, the comparing watch reads 02h 00m 38s, and the chronometer reads 02h 01m 33s. What is the chronometer error?
The chronometer was 52 seconds fast. The watch was 3 seconds slow relative to true time, and the chronometer was 55 seconds fast relative to the watch, resulting in a net chronometer error of 52 seconds fast.
