It could be more than rumours http://shop.heinrichsweikamp.com/diving-computer/ostc-cr.html I'm not a CCR diver, but I saw it on the HW website yesterday when was looking up potential new computers, perhaps an ostc3 > > > Do you use it as DC or BT? > > I run my OSTC3 as a DC, and my Suunto Vyper in Gauge mode in my pocket. > > There have bin some long running debate about DC vs. BT in the tech > diving community and the old truths about DC isn't true anymore, like > some of the FUD GUE is still spreading[3].
