Hey Seahag...little help in the galley please
 
Now you tell me.

All I had was a stubby screwdriver for the thud test and burned off one
side of my beard before I heard a thud. ;0)

You know how it is Joe.
The technical writers aren't necessarily technicians and just didn't know.
But I've done the routine so many times that the misplaced decimal seemed to
jump out at me. Maybe no one at Force 10 noticed the misprint before, or
maybe they just figured the hell with it, it costs to much to republish the
manaul. We've just made them realize that people read and discuss.
I've gotten a lot of good information here on ASA, it's nice to be able to
give back something, even if it's just about fixing a grill.


It may not be a misprint, at room temp the output from a type J
thermocouple (Fe-Constantan) will be around 1.5 mV, at 300C you get
20mV. (I just looked it up in my Omega Thermocouple Reference.)

Cheers

Marty,
You don't have to rely on my experience. I contacted Force 10 and they
say it's a misprint.
