Thanks Ian, I’ll try it next season. I’m thinking of tossing out my Zander SR940, and replacing it with a modern vario, front and back seats, perhaps ClearNav.
Can you tell me how much it would be for either two instruments, or one with a repeater? Does the ClearNav calculate and indicate instantaneous wind? Is it able to compensate electronically? The Zander goes wild when I connect to TE probe, presumably due to the two Winters that are on that line. And its electronic compensation is crap.

Subject: [Aus-soaring] Clear Nav VARIO and Multi Function Display VARIO 3.0 beta and 3.1 will be out very shortly so keep checking ClearNav web site for the latest. I gather the jump from 2.7 will have improved performance of the vario especially the gusty broken days. I have some of these new temperature probes for the vario. I am uncertain how it improves the vario performance. MFD (Multi Function Display) There is a mod to have an external speaker so you can hear the FLARM alert audio. It is hugely better in volume. MFD II is finally available and older units can be updated at a price. The screen is even brighter and uses less power. CAMBRIDGE 302 vario/loggers I now have 6 more Garmin GPS 15xL-W engines (3 not spoken for). With the old GPS15 engine the instrument still works including navigation but will not down load a flight. If you check the date you will probably see 2005 (or maybe 1995) PLEASE CHECK DATE as I am still finding owners with date/download issues. Thats all Ian McPhee 0428847642
