Try an LX8000 with track set to display vario (colour coding). Great for

Agreed about the colour coded track. LK8000 uses the same colour coding
scheme for its track display. I find this is more useful for sniffing
round a thermal than the thermal finder, which I've turned off. As my
normal thermalling technique uses the vario audio to re-center every
circle I don't bother looking at LK8000 once I've found the thermal,
though I may occasionally glance at its thermalling history bar.
