Gary,

I am using whew-WD to drive the SteelSeries gauges.
...and yes skybase is a correct translation of cloudbase.
The issue is merely that I am using the Norwegian translation and that 
works perfect apart from the unit used for cloudbase. 
....and it is a tiny detail. In Norwegian we do not use the plural "s" for 
"meter" like you do in English "meters". If you look at my page 
http://www.torolmen.no/database/ss/index.html you will see that the skybase 
(cloudbase) gauge displays meter*s* instead of meter.

...and while we are at it, you will also notice that the default units for 
this gauge is feet (ft). I haven't been able to change that to meter (m).

Rune.
