The temperature the outdoor sensor reads is at least 3 degrees off from what
it should be. Is there any way to adjust the temperature reading in these
units? The instructions don't say anything about this issue.
Thanks,

John, if you can open the outdoor unit, look and see if there is any tiny potentiometer inside. It is likey that the calibration resides with the analog sensor before the signal is digitized for transmission. If there is a pot [not a trimmer cap for the RF] then note it's position and then adjust it and see if the temperature reading changes. If not, set it back to original and live with it.
