The magnetic lines of force that are detected by these sensors are bent and distorted by any magnetic materials or large metal objects such as cars, metal fences or steel reinforced buildings.

The larger the metal object, the farther you should be from it to get the best performance from your mySKY. mySKY Keys The TRIGGER The TRIGGER is located on the hand grip. When the TRIGGER is pushed, you tell mySKY that you are pointing at an object in the sky that you wish to identify and learn about.
