Precisely.
My apologies for the confusion: perhaps I shouldn't have used a black
rectangle on a black background to obfuscate the location.
The reported altitude at my location (which is just a few km outside
downtown Bern) is plausible. After additional surveys it shows as
being closer to 620m.
Cheers!
