Is there a separate dial to change the magnetic declination?

Yes, there is a separate bezel ring with positive clicks to change declination.

No, there is not. Magnetic declination is changed on the US military compass by adding degrees for west declination, converting from grid azimuth to magnetic azimuth, and subtracting for east declination. Reverse the process to convert back.

Yes... This is the best compass you will find. It's the same exact one I used in the Army... I wouldn't trust my life to any other compass out there.

Just turn the dial to the function (start time, frequency, etc.) and then press the +/- buttons to go up or down. It's really straightforward.

no, it is basically two dials that you get the degree and angle...no electronics.

Today's cell phone "compasses" are gps based, not magnetic. There will be no interference by any magnet at any time. Rest assured.

As shown in the photo, the yellow dial on the Left is the polarity selector. You can select which polarity you want.

The following version (with the D for declination) has the adjustment: Suunto Tandem/360PC/360R Dg Clino/Compass

Yes. Kind of a word mechanism. I don't use it because it seems like it would wear out. And it's almost as easy to just spin the dial

no. magnet in spokes. resetting the odometer resets everything from the clock to the tire size, tripometer, etc.

It is one of the options on the dial located on top that changes between green/red points. It should be on the "R" or "G" when off. Hope this helps

On mine there is numbered rotating dial which provides continuous variable speed settings. There are some "flat" spots so it is not very smooth.

It must be a different frequincy. I don't knotw how to change it Does the original tell you the frequincy? You might contact Stanley by email to find out.

it is basically a little screw driver for adjusting the declination marker. Its pretty convenient if you don't like doing math on the fly. If you aren't familiar with declination read up on it. Its important. Skip to 2:47 if you are impatient. http://youtu.be/asdhtDEC-V4

Yes, the bezel is incremented every five degrees, with every ten degrees numbered. It rotates to set to your area declination, however it does not have a positive locking feature and you need to double check from time to time, just to make sure your setting has not bumped out of place.

The ridicule can be changed from illuminated red, green, or non-illuminated black; via a dail on the side of the scope. The magnifacation can also be changed from 0-4x via dial.

My mode dial turns freely in both directions. You have to push the button in the middle of the mode dial down in order to move the dial, of course.

Yes! Click the mode button a few times until you get to "distance" not "steps." It shows to the second decimal place.

The "setup" screen on the unit allows you to choose any of many options for the coordinate display including degrees in decimals, minutes in decimals, UTM, etc. These units are highly customizable; in that respect you won't be disappointed. I have used - and still use- the original version , and have for over 10 years. They are still working as well as they did when I got them except that the tide predictions (which were very useful even in remote parts of Alaska) are no longer available for contemporary dates.
