Default Sporty's E6B density altitude disparity

My reading of the chart shows about 1800' density altitude.


I noticed that too... I took the problem out of the Jeppesen Private Pilot
Manual and they came to the 2000' conclusion that I was using. 1800'
would make my Sporty's the most accurate.

*grumble*

But, that doesn't explain why none of the electronic calculators agree with
the 1000' pressure altitude on the chart.
