For those who may not be able to do the maths, 100 metres at 6NM equates to around 0.5 degrees of up tilt. 300 metres at 6NM equates to about 1.5 degrees of up tilt. This information probably won't be very helpful with the standard weather radar, though I confess to checking between 0.5 degrees up and down in flight.
That has, usually, been enough to keep me out of real trouble but, of course, not always...
It certainly isn't a substitute for the sort of thing that's being discussed here, sadly.
