[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1142272, member: 90399"] While researching this, purchasing a GPS to find my true altitude is the direction I keep thinking I'll need to go. However I don't know if barometric pressure and altitude are so directly related that if I input my true altitude will the device be able to give me my true barometric pressure or is it just an educated guess? When I say "my device" it is a Caldwell Crosswind Professional Wind Meter. But I'm also asking to learn more about how these devices work in general. Like if I had a Kestral, would I also need to calibrate it? Am I making a mountain out of a mole hill with this stuff? It seems like I read and read... and depending on what website I'm on, the verbiage people are using seems to contradict itself. Thanks all. [/QUOTE]
