Paul,

You have to do that with your calculator :-) .
I never can remember when to add 32 and when to subtract 32, so I use a slightly different method which relies on the fact that both the F and C scales coincide at -40 deg. Add 40 first - then multiply by 5/9 (multiply by 5 and divide by 9) if converting from F to C (9/5 when converting from C to F), then subtract 40 and you will have the converted result. Remembering whether to use 5/9 or 9/5 is easy too - if the result you want is the C scale, the number will be smaller, so use 5/9. When the result is in deg F, the number must be larger, so use 9/5.

73,

The technical menu needs to be turned on in order to view the PA temp, etc.

How do you switch the temperatures to Fahrenheit?
