Default Tasman Vario on Static

Excellent, thanks, thats what i thought but wasn't sure if there was
something funny with the Tasman. Obviously they assumed that anyone
flying with a nice audio vario would also have a TE probe when they
wrote their manual. I have proved them wrong!

btw this thread reminds me of this classic story http://www.jimforeman.com/Stories/varios.htm

After yanking the TE probe out of my glider i managed to fly twice as
many hours as any previous season along with two 300km+ days and get
my gold badge last year. I came within 4 miles of diamond goal.

Hi Tony,

Yes. *Any vario (including the Tasman V2000) will work fine when connected
to the TE Probe (for TE compensated static) or directly to the static port.
