Default

a temp is a temp
but if you cannot calibrate (offset and linearity) then it is only a number
such 'numbers' can be useful for 'A' and 'B' comparisons in the very same setup
but are quite worthless to compare one system's components to those of another
and of course such 'numbers' should not be confused with temperatures

in testing calibration is everything, one MUST have a fixed (and valid) reference point
