Gennaro,
Welcome to our Navigation group.
We hope that you enjoy our discussions. Many topics reappear when new
people join. There are always a good number of very good ongoing discussions.
Can you tell us more about beam-converger sextants, I have never heard of
it ? Is this another name full view mirror.
I personally like the full view mirroe as opposed to the split mirror.
I have a Russian Cetus sextant with a split mirror and a Frieberger with a
full view. Generally the Frieberger wins when taking sights. Although I
prefer the coloured shades of the Cetus.
Aubrey.
