New Version of Tasman Variometer Firmware Available

Hi,

Tasman has released a new version of the firmware that runs in the V1000
variometer. The new version has a different sink tone than previous
versions. The sink tone now gets lower in pitch with lower sink rates. The
climb tone remains the same as it has always been with increasing pitch with
higher climb rates. The previous versions had a sink tone that increased in
pitch with higher sink rates. I found the old sink tone to be less than
intuitive while flying so I requested the change. They made the change
quickly. I was very impressed with the support from Tasman! All the units
in my stock now have the new sink tone. Upgrades to the new version are
also available. You can see details or order the upgrade from my web site.

I'm sure that someone will feel that I'm posting a commercial post here -
which I've been told is a no no. I believe that most owners of Tasman
variometers will be glad that I announced the availability of this new
version.

Good Soaring,
