Hallo Dirk,
Allow me to ask a few questions. 1) If I am in a situation where
salinity is not recorded by the dc, would it be pointless to edit the
salinity, even if editing was restricted to cases where the dc has no
salinity value? Jef assures me some dive computers do not report
salinity. 2) If it is pointless, why does Subsurface bother to implement
salinity in both the dive computer as well as in the dive structures?
Most of the discussion I am aware of revolved around dive planning, not
on logging a dive after the fact.
Kind regards,
willem
