Jerry, I used an extremely high tech method to calibrate. I simultaneously
inserted the probes under my tongue, along with an accurate digital medical
thermometer (which read the body temperature that I expected). I found
that I needed to place all under only one side of my tongue, and to "stir"
by tongue movement to get the least differences in readings.
As I was doing this, my sons drove up with a load of bees. In other
situations, one might think that seeing a beekeeper with a bunch of probes
hanging out of his mouth in a beeyard might look curious. But not in my
beeyards--my sons didn't even think that seeing me that way was unusual
enough to even comment on.
