The NAR Contest Board has approved MicroPeak for use in contests requiring a barometric altimeter starting on the 1st of April, 2014. You can read the announcement message on the contestRoc Yahoo message board here:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/contestRoc/conversations/messages/33872 The message was sent out on the 30th of January, but there is a 90 day waiting period after the announcement has been made before you can use MicroPeak in a contest, so the first date approved for contest flights is April 1. After that date, you should see MicroPeak appear in Appendix G of the pink book (http://www.nar.org/pinkbook/G_altimeters.html), which lists the altimeters approved for contest use Thanks much to the NAR contest board and all of the fliers who helped get MicroPeak ready for this! -keith
