Abstract: In summary, the present invention thus relates to a method of determining a level of a product in a tank, comprising generating and transmitting an electromagnetic transmit signal; guiding the transmit signal towards and into the product; returning an electromagnetic reflection signal resulting from reflection of the transmit signal; receiving, the reflection signal; determining, based on the reflection signal and a timing relation between the reflection signal and the transmit signal, an echo signal exhibiting an echo signal strength as a function of a propagation parameter indicative of position along the probe; and determining the level of the surface of the product based on a propagation parameter value indicative of a first threshold position along the probe for which the echo signal has reached a predetermined threshold signal strength, and an offset indicative of an offset distance along the probe from the first threshold position towards the second probe end.
