Hi everyone, this is my first post on scubaboard, but i've been poking around here for months and this seems to be THE place for all things SCUBA.
My wife and I both just purchased Oceanic datamasks b/c our LDS gave us a killer deal on them. Everything seems to work fine but elevation.
Her Mask says it's at EL2 when in our house.
My mask doesn't say anything about EL
I've looked at the manual and the tables, and EL2 should be above 3000MSL. Our house sits at roughly 2700MSL, which is pretty close, so I'm wondering if there are inherent calibration glitches of +/- a couple hundred feet when it comes to reading barometric pressure. We have a trip to Catalina planned next week, so hopefully they'd both read as being at Sea Level then, but is this something I should be concerned about?
Thanks for any help and insight
