A note about transponder altitude inaccuracy. I also noticed significant

significant inaccuracy that Dan noted is due to MRX error, not
necessarily transponder error.

You may get larger MRX errors if the glider does not have a local
transponder (that is being interrogated and seen by the MRX)...if it does
the MRX will use the transponder's transmitted altitude instead of it's
internal pressure sensor--which can be affected by cockpit ventilation.
With the number of issues that I believe Ramy had with his MRX maybe it was
not properly identifying the local transponder.
