About this EM2 monitor you suddenly have time to work on.... How far is it
going to expand? Any chance of it monitoring the other engine stuff we all
need, like oil pressure, oil temp, coolant temp, coolant temp, fuel
pressure, fuel quantity * 2, egt, prop RPM, etc etc etc. How soon and how
much? I need to make a decision on engine instrumentation real soon and a
RWS system built for the 13B / EC2 combination would be perfect.
--------------------------

I'm also very interested in an engine monitor, and will have to choose one
in the next couple months, so I'd be more than a little interested to hear
the details of the one you're working on Tracy.

Has anyone looked at the PCFlight Products EMON?

This is a Compaq Ipaq based engine monitor that seems pretty complete.  The
really intriguing thing is the last line of the description "New Version for
Real World Solutions EC-2".  Anyone know anything about this?  I've had a
note to call about this, but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Finally, I'd like to add my wishes for a fast and complete recovery.  You
guys have both had a rough year for injuries and health problems, so it has
to get better.  Good luck!
