So 889ft in the console plus 889ft offset in Cumulus is a total of 1778ft being used in the altimeter pressure calculation, which is why the result is so far off. The figure in the 'Offset' panel is exactly that - an offset, applied to the figure read from the console, as described in the help. If you set it back to zero, you should find the result closer to what it should be.

Thank you Steve. I don't know how I missed that setting. I looked at that calibration screen, but was looking just at the Pressure Offset.

I'm glad you got us on the right track and CWOP graphing looks much more acceptable.

Mike
