Nah, just about every weather report corrects the barometric pressure
readings. I just want plain onl raw absolute pressure and temperature if I
can get them. No density altitude or density ratios or any of that stuff. I
don't understand it. But I do understand the universal gas equations and how
to figure out the parameters from them. So I am looking for basic unaltered
data. However, they may be ok. How often do the update and how do I get the
info?
