Is that alt info built in? Yes. If so, is there no correction for barometric pressure changes? No. I don't know that it would be severe, but it seems like the window could be +/- 100 feet from day to day that the controllers get from the transponder. True. The equipment at the controllers' end corrects for barometric pressure fluctuations, so the info the controller sees is pretty accurate.
