[Alberg30] Instruments

[Dave Terrell]

oh dear. Mine are already ordered and on the way. Do you know what the
problem was with the wind instrument? why it would not stay calibrated?
The ones I am getting can be calibrated from the deck though I think the
purchase of a top climber is a good idea anyway. I have had very good
results with the Horizon instruments in the past.any input would be
helpful.

Dave   save your money   I have 3 std hor. wind instruments 1 from sail
net
2 from tim johnson at std. horz. speed and depth  are fair,   but the
wind
thing  leaves a lot to be desired ,  never seem to stay calibrated one
day
to the next. if you get one buy a top climber  from atn because you
will
need it      imho  buy rayteon and be done with it   George K # 259
