Joe, I have successfully used the Fluke Hydra 2620 data acquisition unit. It has 20 channels that are configurable for thermocouples of almost all common types (I use "T"). The channels can also be setup to measure voltage, current, resistance. Computer interface is RS232C and is therefore compatible with most every PC on the planet. IN the channel scan mode it is a little sluggish compared to some high performance units. But what the heck, these are thermal measurements after all. I think I paid 2 kilo-bucks each, a couple of years ago.

I found a model MTT-40 on the ED&D web site that seems to fit my needs but would like to shop around to see what's out there. Any input regarding features with pro's and cons would be greatly appreciated. Could someone also explain the differences between the options of glass braid and teflon thermocouple wire. The only difference shown on the web site was the max temperature supported.
