[TowerTalk] Weather Stations ( sort of off topic)

[Paul N1BUG FN55mf]

I've had good luck with a Davis Vantage Vue. I have it mounted at 95 
feet on one of my towers and have had no problems with a kW on 160m 
through 135cm and lower power on 70cm.

I did have a wind speed sensor fail. I think, but cannot prove, my high 
power transmissions on 2200m may have killed it. Before it failed I 
noticed wind speed indication did not work while I was transmitting on 
that band, but would come back when I stopped. Then one night while I 
was on 2200m it stopped working permanently.

73,
