Repeaters Purpose Repeaters  are  designed  to  receive  the  signal  transmitted  from  the  master gyro.  This  allows  the  ship’s  control  stations  to  receive  real-time  gyro data.  The  chief  advantage  of  repeaters  is  that  they  may  be  set  up  nearly vertical  for  use  by  the  helmsman.  Repeaters  may  also  be  placed  flat  for taking  bearings  of  navaids  or  ships  with  alidades  and  bearing  circles. Figure  2-12  illustrates  a standard   repeater.   The card  is  laid  out  with relative  bearings  on  the outside  circle  and  true bearings  on  the  inside circle.   In   upcoming   topics you  will  learn  how  to  use related  tools  to  measure angles  (bearings)  using repeaters. Figure  2-12.  Standard  gyro  repeater. Locations Repeaters  are  normally  found  at  all  the  ship’s  control  stations,  these areas  include  but  are  not  limited  to  the  following  spaces: The   pilothouse   and   bridgewings Aftersteering Secondary   conn Additional  repeaters  are  normally  placed  in  the  following  spaces: Commanding   officer’s   stateroom CIC Navigator’s   stateroom Accuracy The  QMOW  must  check  the  repeaters  occasionally  against  the  master gyro  to  determine  errors. 2-21
