By Jove....I think we got it...

After moving the mag temp to the side of the stove, able to get good reading even with fan blowing. (Thanks to all who suggested that) Other wise we kept adding wood to get the temperature to move up. Right now The Englander 30 is so purty to watch. Flue temp (single pipe for now) is right around 270 stove temp is about 460. Secondarys are on and the house is warm.
