[CA11] Wind sensor shows impossibly high speed on occasion
When I bought my boat a year ago the wind sensor transducer was damaged during delivery. A few months ago I finally replaced had it replaced and for the most part it works great. However, on occasion and usually when the winds are above about 15 knots or so, the speed being shown will seem to be a multiple of what it really is. Even adjusting for wind speed being higher at the top of the mast than at sea level. Under conditions where the speed would show 20 knots, at some point it will start showing 40 or 60 (I've even seen it show wind speeds over 100 knots). After the wind calms down for a bit the display will go back to reporting the correct speed. I have done the calibration where you drive slowly in a circle but that didn't seem to fix it. Any ideas? It's not the end of the world but very curious if other have had the same issue.

Many thanks
Rich
