USE HDG IN TWA CALCULATION
This option uses the compass of MAX for all wind calculations instead of
COG. This gives more accurate wind data at low speeds, but requires a
more extensive calibration of both MAX and the wind sensor. This option
is mostly recommended for coach or weather boats: it requires the wind
sensor and MAX to be in a fixed position and mounted/calibrated exactly
in the forward direction of the boat. It also requires the compass of MAX
to be calibrated perfectly and away from any ferrous metals.
