2. I've asked Tom to allow for average speed over a custom distance (I need this for my event), but he said that it's very complex to do this (not sure why),>>>>>>


Just a thought here. If you've looked at your alpha distances, you'll have noticed that virtually all of them are less than 500m.
This is because the distance travelled in one second at speed is quite long, so it's very hard to measure over a fixed accurate distance, because the data is in discreet steps, several metres apart.

I think that's one of the reasons why the GTC doesn't have a 500m division, but has the 5X10 instead.
Time divisions are accurate, all data is 1second apart, (with the GTs anyway), but distance could be anything, depending on speed.

Here is what I asked Tom Chalko:

1. IS THERE ANY POSIBILITY TO GT31 got i DATA LOGGER options for Logging Enable & Logging Disable, or Logging ON, Logging OFF ?
set MIN SPEED to any value you want. Logging will take place only when you move above this speed
2. Is there any other way to got few separate sessions in one day, and not using for that russian method of switching device OFF and ON again ?
it is the simplest method.
But, why do you want few sessions per day? It is MUCH EASIER to deal with 1 file per day.
I leave my GT31 running for 20 hours, but I use MIN SPEED settings.
Use MIN SPEED settings. There are 2 min speed settings, one for SD card and one for the Data Logger.
You are the only person in the world who wants "separate files". hahahha
It is MUCH EASIER to deal with 1 file
3. new option in MISC: DELETE>DEL ALL a clearing only flash memory, not SD card, right ?
yes. SD card is not touched.
Doppler: you cannot turn Doppler OFF.
GT31 does tracks and Doppler together all the time.

also check out this homemade armbands: http://www.windsurfing-koprivnica.net/e107_plugins/autogallery/autogallery.php?show=Ostale%20Slike%2FTorbice%20GT-31


We do that for only one reason, becouse aquapac are TOO BIG, TOO UGLY
Cool will be that will be one model of aquapac only for GT, but at this point for me, aqua is to big for that device, and smaller model don't fit GT in
Stupid thing is also that both models are TOO DEEP and we with smaller hand, got some stupid bad from shoulder to half of aour arms :(

Why they don't have shorter and wider models ??? Why they do that bags so long ??? I just don't like it, I can't help myself

THAT IS COOL: &newwindow=1

Over here we have a nice bag called "paqua midi" Just the right size, and the outside plastic isn't tight over the toggle, so it gives you some chance of operating the thing in the pack.

JP747 (from the philipines) also makes a nice pack, if you can't find the paqua midi over there, PM jp747.
