That little software program is one cute little piece of work eh!
Once you fiddle the settings about, it is quite a handy tool to have about.
Not sure on it's accuracy though, presently telling me 22 km/hr from SE but at Raby Bay my boat is trying to come off its cradle with winds around 40-45 K/hr
