A few questions regarding bearings

Hi guys, just wondering what the most appropriate way to write bearings is.

Does it always have to be 3 digits? (eg. 060 instead of just 60)
Do we have to include T for 'true' at the end? (eg. 060T as opposed to 060)
What about the 'degrees' symbol?

Some clarification would be most appreciated  ;D

Yes, you always need 3 digits and degrees symbol, however i don't the think the T sign is required though include it when it is a true bearing just to be safe.

For True Bearings, it has to be 3 digits and have the degree sign with a capital "T" on the end. :)

Yeah, I don't think the T is necessary, but you might as well put it on (it doesn't make it wrong).

Oh, but three digits is a must as others have mentioned.
