Title: La Crosse Technology WS-8256U-AL
Product review: While the clock works quite well and resets as it should, the wireless outdoor thermometer is way off. I base this on two other wireless brands I own,an Acu-rite and a Oregon Scientific, along with the local NOAA weather broadcast, also WFIE TV. The Acu-rite temp=18.2 F, the Oregon Scientific+18.5 F,and the NOAA broadcast temp @ 20:09 Jan28/07 = 18F, Local TV station WFIE-TV=18F. [...]As I write this, The Weather Channel also reports it is 18 degrees F at 20:30.The La Crosse WS-8256U-AL reports it is 23.5 F, more than 5 degrees off. In my opinion,a clock/thermometer costing this much should be dead on.Buy it for the time, NOT the temperature.
