I guess I was fortunate enough to be ignorant of any sun avoidanc= e requirements; stuck mine in my NACA inlet for fresh air vents, and it see= ms to read pretty accurately.  I'm wondering how much effect the sun c= an possibly have on it when there's 200 kt of fresh air blowing on it; woul= d be more concerned with air being heated upstream but other than sticking = it aft of the lower cowl outlets / exhaust, can't imagine anything else ser= iously affecting the freestream temp.  Until, of course, I upgrade to = ramjet and start getting real gas effects

At any rate, it seems to work fine in the NACA inlet.
