a reading of 18.79"Hg would mean that you are roughly 11,000 feet above sea level. Sea level pressure is 29.92"Hg
Maryland is definably NOT 11,000' MSL
You would pass out in 30 to 45 min at that altitude. Pilots in non pressurized aircraft are advised to have supplemental O2 if they intend to be at that altitude for longer than 30min. That ALT. reading is WAY off
