Hi Marina,
Another nice review! Thanks for doing the compass, since that category was empty. Just one correction/clarification for you and you're good to go, upload anytime to
Navigation and Map Gear > Compasses > SUUNTO MC-2 Mirror Compass
Don't forget to delete your draft file.
Too bad about the German translation, you'd think the Finns would get that right; usually it's English that gets fractured!
Grüße,

###The scale of declination also allows me to measure (a) the angle of gradient and (b) the altitude, using the
clinometer indicator (free-swinging black pointer inside the liquid capsule) on the scale.
EDIT: more accurately, replace "(b) the altitude" with "(b) height of an object". This requires additional calculations. I didn't this in the User Guide as posted online, but found this site with good instructions: http://www.zoom-one.com/distance.htm (bottom of page)
