[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1155745, member: 90399"] You were absolutely correct Michael. It only took me another 5-6 hours of reading to figure it out. I kept getting confused because the instructions of the device talk you through calibrating the device from either known Baro Pressure or known Altitude BEFORE setting the Altitude to 0ft so it gives you the Station Pressure. Which just like you said, Station Pressure is what you want anyways. At the end of the day, the solution was so incredibly easy I can't believe I read about it and couldn't figure it out for so long. Just go into Pressure calibration mode and set the Altitude to 0ft and the device outputs the Station Pressure. You don't need to calibrate anything. I won't need to calibrate it because I don't actually care about my Altitude or the Barometric Pressure. I only care about and will use the Station Pressure (Absolute Pressure) in the ballistics software. I'm sure this confuses many people who purchase this device. Their instructions are horrible.
