Magnetic declination in Survex

[Luc Le Blanc]

Hi,

>From what I read and understood in 2014, in Survex, a negative
declination is East in the *calibrate declination command. Yet, when I
check the more recent *declination command, I read:

"Compass bearings are measured relative to Magnetic North - adding the
magnetic declination gives bearings relative to True North."

This suggests a negative West declination.

What's the truth?
