You mean there's something in the manual that's actually correct AND useful?

Does anyone know if the error margin is the same for measurement of short and long distances? Is it always a fixed percentage or are measurements of longer distances more accurate?

I never had any problems with determining speed from plot, but then again I use 3 and 6 minute intervals. And I know when the ruler flips from 0.8 to 0.9 that really means 0.85 and NOT 0.9. Right??? I hope...
