Not sure if anyone answered the Trutrak question, but yes there is a magnetic calibration for the trutrak that is in the setup menu and the manual. It is used - I believe- as a backup when there is no GPS or Nav signal and in "track" mode. If you have any questions call Trutrak. They know their equipment and are always helpful.
