Reply to "When to calibrate"

Wow, lay off for a few days and you can miss a great discussion! I agree with David, it's really good to have a cal course pretty close to where you're measuring. I think it's worth the extra effort. With a nearby course you really can finish pre and post calibration, then sit down and figure out what you've got, then make your final markings before driving a long ways and then getting the final verdict.
Middle of the night is also good for laying out a cal course-- not only steadier temps but no sun beating down on your tape.
I think if it rains or something, you look at what you have for an average constant, and if you're not willing to accept that then you've got to go back on another day.
