Russell:

None of my sources call for arrowheads for the LOP. Since it is just
that a line that your position is on, somewhere. If the LOP is extended
infineately it is a circle, usually it is just extended until it
crosses another LOP. Therefor, no markings othe than time and body
labels.

>Hi - is the corect way to draw an LOP a line with a arrowhead at each end?
>Or is it a single arrowhead pointing to the bearing of the object.
