    That's the only reason I would want one. Store all the data from the manifold onto the HG3 wirelessly(is that a real word)
    then print out the data or store it on the computer.

    I've encountered systems with no insulation on the lines under the house......it's easier to get an actual SH measurement at the evap. coil, than it is insulate the lines.

    One of the things that actually might sway me towards the sman....

    Why?

    A wireless unit that needs wires?

    If it turns out to be nothing more than a receiver/display I would probably opt for stand alone wireless or DMM enabled vs built in the manifold.

    I think I'll wait for Fluke to release their new wireless equipment before I decide anything.

It didn't sound like any wireless could be used for any automatic SH or SC calculations at the manifold in place of wired temperature inputs.

    Will it receive more than one wireless signal?

    I have a good handle on the basic core functions but tell me more about the wireless please.
    If I bought one it would be solely for the wireless function.
    you need FPs transmitters and a remote sensor for every conceivable temp measurement.

    And i got a Email from Trutech today rescinding pre-orders cause FP sill has no friggin' delivery date.
