[TowerTalk] Weather station

[David Olga Stein]

I can tell you from first hand experiance they are great and work well, and you can send your data up to weather underground and CWOP etc...

 

BUT, they don't work well in a high RF environment, even if you use it wireless, the anemometer and rain gauge still have to be wired to the main sensor unit. un less you can locate them quite far from your antennas you will wipe it out even at 100 watts, at least this has been my experience and that of a friend of mine, he has since purchased a Davis which is RF proof, if there is such a thing. but in any case it works well for him at leagal limit rf output in close proximity to the antennas
