Thanks for the observations!
Ford kicks over to the High altitude maps at 4500 ft so generally you will see some smoke changes in the 4000 to 5000 ft range.

I have changed the high altutude maps on Bill's tunes for the CO altitude, however I really need to get setup for live tuning with my Minotaur so I can tweak these settings on the fly
I guess I never realized you were in Fountain. You're only about an hour or so away from me.

Kind of but not absolute, the tipping point will be about 5500 so figure out whats happening with the tables.

The high altitude maps also have a bearing on me when I'm home at 4100 ft.

So........
