I know I have one in my goodie box.

Fantastic vario. That 9-volt battery connected will always get you home in a pinch... I used this vario for many years as the main. I'll look and get back to you unless you find one quicker... And yes, it's the 57 mm size.

Hey, Enrique! Hmmm, didn't get it. Let me check and see if this Email here is one that is activated in my iPhone. Glad to hear you're still out and kicking!
Brother is towing at Treasure Coast Soaring. Let's fly again! I'll try you tonight... Best Regards... Gary

That's great, John. Give us a report on the vario after installation. I like that Vario as much as my old organ grinder, Ilec, SB-8...

I've been flying with a B.40 as backup to my SDI C4 for the last 12
years. Its been totally reliable and has a nice fast, and very smooth,
response. I would hate to be without it.

I normally fly with both C4 and B.40 running, but with the B.40 sound
off. However, if I'm ridge-running I have its sound turned up (for both
climb and sink) and turn the C4's sound off.
