92. Given QDM 138° and VAR 10°E, what is QUJ?
Answer
148°
Explanation
Converting the magnetic direction to the corresponding true track with 10°E variation gives **148°** under the Q-code convention used in the item. **Key takeaway:** Keep bearing direction and true/magnetic reference distinct. **Glossary:** QDM: magnetic bearing to the station; QUJ: true track to the station.
