A Relative Bearing is relative to your position but measured against the present heading of your vessel.
So heading 295.
On the 075 QDR so the Aid is 180 opposite that; which = bearing 255 from Mag North.
Measure clockwise from your heading to Relative pos of Aid = 65 degs (to North) + 255 degs = 320M.
