Tuning with egt using a TC

[MikeBergy]

So, I've seen articles on amplifying a TC signal inorder to log it. I plan on doing this, if anybody has done this, or has any links to articles I could peruse, please link them here. I'll be researching in the meantime. No need to spend 300+ on an egt guage/sensor if I can buy a TC for 30-40$ and then build a small amp for the signal. Any input welcome.

Mark's circuit works well and you can easily log to anything that takes a 0-5v signal.

I was just reading that article about 5 minutes ago. I finallly got the most recent turboedit source files, so I am going to mod it for my own use. How did you go about building the kit?
