[QUOTE="Benjaminwill80, post: 1463948, member: 96557"] Was speaking with Leica about the geovids and the gentleman had an interesting method for using those with a custom dial. He said the geovid is calibrated at sea level and can’t quite remember the temp but think 58 deg or 65 deg, somewhere in there. Anyways, he said if you have your dial made with same parameters the geovid is calibrated to, the dial will then be calibrated to the geovids. That way when you range with the geovids it calculates the appropriate adjusted range based on the atmospherics. Because the dial is matched to the geovid calibration, the range output of the geovid can be used with what is on the dial regardless of your elevation, temp, etc. I’ve not tested this but seemed like a nice setup.
