I think what most of us care about isn't absolute accuracy as much as 
repeatability. If it's off the same amount every time, you'll still see when things 
are hotter than you're used to seeing.

One of us ought to put a head or sensor in the oven, hook up the sensor and
gauge and see what the heck it says; i.e. calibrate it!  At least for that
situation in that location and temperature, we would have an idea... 

My prediction...kind of like Johnny Carson.... is that the temp will be
within plus or minus 20 degrees but we will still have no way knowing what
air flowing by does to cooling the thermistor....

Really need two ovens, one for the gauge that we can adjust from whatever-in
my case, 50 degrees under dash to 120 degrees.
