Cool that sounds great. Thanks a lot. If I must work Friday, then I'll be able to watch Thursday night from the hotel. If not then I'll be riding in the car, but I could watch on my Droid I bet. Lets set it up......that sounds awesome.

Good luck! You're gonna have a blast. Now you'll never be able to go back.....

Have to chime in with the other guys: Thermometer is an absolute MUST. You need to know where you're cold bugging.

And try to get a mini 3 inch iron anvil to have near you when you bench. I usually get an extra 100 mhz out of my clocks when I do. Sounds crazy, but it makes more sense than glazing your pot.

I guess I'll wait and buy an Extech EA10 this weekend, unless anyone knows of a cheaper comparable substitute?

EDIT: it sounds like the actual probes are not even rated for anywhere near -200.

Check ebay bro, sometimes they got good quality units for cheap. You kinda don't wanna skimp on the temp reader as "False" temps will drive you completely MAD!
