interesting...what type of set up and systems did you use? i am
concerned for off shore and ocean crossing situations.....200+
n miles off shore and more....the radar will act as a backup system,
of course primary systems are watches 24/7.......

thanx

Digital barometers have a function where when they detect a noticeable

but it is not a very reliable system. I never had it inform me of
something I didn’t already know. The RADAR alarm, even on an
