Hi Hannu,

I use a Garmin 60 or FLARM, both of which supply pressure altitude, so that was 
assumed. You dont need a vario connection neccesarily to get pressure altitude. 
I have found FLARM ot be very good as 
GPS source for XCsoar, and like the FLARM radar. 

When I flew my first comp recently, the entire task area had 12,00ft clearance 
too.....-that helps(:
