I'm having trouble with Slope of lines created from points at Basic diameters. The picture shows 4 points ( E,F,G AND H ) all located on Basic diameters. The slope call out appears to be asking slope of each line to Datum -A-, which is the top plane, Z axis of part. I have taken these points at the specified basic diameters, created lines from these points, but the results are 0.297 inches. I know I'm doing something wrong.
Any help is appreciated. Will provide more info if needed.

You don't. The slope is covered by the profile tolerance and according to your sketch, basic (or TED) so that shouldn't (in my opinion) be reported. It is there so you can calculate the position of the surface (like I did). If you'd had a CAD that worked, you'd simply click a point on that slope and everything (values, theos) would be taken from the CAD. No manual calculation (headache) needed.
UKCMM,Your calculated angles were spot on. I measured these points E, F, G and H using the angles you provided at 1° vectors. I then created a Feature Set with those points, then reported Slope of a line of the set. It would be so much easier if prints had all the info you needed, but I guess it would be way to crowded.
Thanks again.
