Not a plus model, but I did think of doing something like that - the PTT
'OR' as well.  But then it wouldn't really count as a quick and dirty
solution, would it?  =]

It's working well enough for now.  Though I think I might tweak it a bit to
average the wind direction over a longer period.  Not sure what the standard
is, if any.
