🔍 Key Concepts

• Chronometer error vs. chronometer rate (they are related but not the same thing) • How a known standard time (such as radio time signals) is used to check a chronometer • The idea of using a reference with known error to find the error of another clock

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: what do you need in order to determine the error at this moment of your chronometer? Is it enough to know how fast/slow it usually runs, or do you also need a current reference? • Think about which options give you an external, trusted time reference, and which rely only on past information from the same chronometer. • Consider whether one accurate method excludes the others, or whether more than one described method can legitimately be used to find chronometer error.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between finding today’s chronometer error and predicting it from past performance (rate). • Check which choices involve comparing to a time source whose error you already know or can assume negligible. • Verify whether marine navigation practice accepts more than one method to obtain chronometer error, not just a single technique.
