Howdy:
Sorry if this is a repeat question. I did some searches on the forum (and the interwebs) and couldn't find a specific answer to this question.
Right now I have the FI501 which I like but I'm always frustrated with it not being able to use SOG for the apparent wind calculation. I can never get my paddlewheel to function for more than a week it seems so my SPD is always 0. Sigh.
As I read the FI70 manual there is an option for "data source for the speed thru water". Does this allow me to set it to SOG and does that impact the apparent wind calculation? Has anyone tried this?
Thanks much!
