[QUOTE="catorres1, post: 1363167, member: 80699"] Thanks for the reply! Have read the user guide a few times over, but still not sure if I have missed something. I could also be missing a setting in JBM, perhaps... The sig we were using was a 2000, not the 2400. I just pulled local conditions and then plugged them into JBM on my phone. Then used the angle modified range from the sig for a holdover from JBM. For the Leica, I have selected the closest curve, and the correct zero range. So I took the EHR it output, and plugged that into JBM, using the standard conditions applied that I got from Leica. When I compared those two holdovers, the Sig JBM output called for more holdover and was correct. The Leica was not. Not sure why. The only thing I can think is that my pressure/temp readings in the RF are off. I have set it by a thermometer in my room and just left it there for a few hours before, and it's usually about 10-12 degrees too warm. I wonder if maybe pressure is off too. Need to find a way to check it's accuracy in that regard, but thought I would see if there are any other settings either with the Leica or in JBM that I am messing up. [/QUOTE]
