[Elecraft] Temperature Sensors

[Don Wilhelm]

Ron,

Yes, but you have to do a bit of math.
There is a simplified formula that does not require one to remember 
whether to add or subtract 32 degrees.
That method has to do with the fact that the two scales coincide at - 40 
deg.
So add 40 degrees to the reading (whether that be degF or degC), then if 
converting from degF to degC (you want a lower number), multiply by 5 
and divide by 9.
If converting from degC to degF (you want a larger number), multiply by 
9 and divide by 5.
Lastly subtract 40 and you have the result.

have fun with it.

73,
