What is a positive effect of using a gps instead of a compass?
The positive effect is that you can succeed in getting to where you're going. A GPS can tell you exactly where you are, and when you couple that information with a map, you can move straight to where you want to be. All a compass can tell you is which way you're facing, which really isn't very useful.

How do you put a negative bearing into a compass?
To input a negative bearing into a compass, first convert the negative bearing into a positive angle by adding 360 degrees (if necessary) to bring it within the 0-360 degree range. For example, a bearing of -30 degrees becomes 330 degrees. Then, align the compass to this positive angle, using the compass housing to set the desired bearing. Finally, use the compass to navigate according to the adjusted angle.

on a compass it caused the compass to point to the magnet instead of magnetic north, I think that South will point to the magnet (if I remember correctly) You can get around this by using our patent which allows a magnetic radio speaker in a radio direction finder to sit directly next to a compass - by aligning the radio speaker to sit directly south of the compass it does not effect the accuracy.
