As Günter says, 1000kph is easy, 720kts = 1333kph!

It seems that I have to update the actual HP-29E GPS firmware version to show 4 digit numbers for speed kph, and 5 digit numbers for altitude meters. Promised!

But I will not show 3 digit numbers of satellites, because it is only a 66 channel receiver. Smile

That's one small step for a man - one giant leap for mankind.
