I knowthis should be in technical talk but I was having a hard time trying to start a new thread there.

question: let say current alt is 30.08 and airport elevation is 1000 so my pressure altitude would be 840ft. If im flying in the area at 4000 does that mean i subtract the same amount from my indicated alt that i did from my airport elevation to get my density alt at 4000?????
