Kevin, my first two coaches had the same unit. I loved it, it also was a altimeter. I have tried to find one for my present coach, but with no success. I would like to know if you find anything out, I still want one.

I think our coach had one just right of center in the dash, but the previous owner took it out. I think I found the temperature pick up behind the front bumper. I’ve searched and searched for it on the Internet and in eBay. What is being put in the newer coaches?

I’ve posted this before … what I’d really like is a “unit” that would give me outside air temp, (GPS based) altitude, and (GPS based) true north heading (adjusted for magetic variance). All in one single, simple unit with all three pieces of information visible at one time. I would think that this is someting that would be easy to do. The GPS receiver would need to have a good clean shot at the satellites, hence I could be mounted on the roof or high on the windshield. Intuitively this is something that should be simple to do. I don’t want a barometric altimeter which needs to be reset everytime the barometric pressure changes (which is almost constantly).

Probably add a fourth piece of informaiton … barometric pressure adjusted for altitude based on the GPS altimeter.

And a fifth and sixth piece of information … #5 is local time based GPS location that adjusts for and indicates the time zone the coach is in (and takes into account DST) and #6 would be time back home (indicate time zone/location of home) adjusted automatically for DST. Its my understanding the GPS satellites send the correct time in their signals. The GPS should be able to figure out where the coach is in and in what time zone its located in.
