Tom, The data protocol of their (not so cheap) data-loggers is publiced by Davis, but I know from first hand that the raw data the sensors send to the console is not public. I have put a lot of time in decoding the signals (among others) and still we don’t know the full protocol yet. Luc On

Just to correct the record, the Vantage protocol was not reverse engineered. They are one of the few vendors who have published their protocol , and have for many years. On

I have an AcuRite and it works fine. It's not solar powered. The sensor unit runs off AA batteries that last me more than a year, though it never gets cold here, YMMV. I don't use SDR. The Acurite display I have has a USB cable that plugs right into the Raspi. I was unhappy with the temp

The AcuRite is a possible choice, but it is anything but 'open'. Everything about it had to be reverse engineered. On Sun, May 17, 2020 at 9:34 AM Andy_501_ve4per < andrew.webb.501.ve4...@gmail.com> wrote: > Try ACURite 1035 I believe is model number for outdoor sensor unit with > wifi connect

Try ACURite 1035 I believe is model number for outdoor sensor unit with wifi connect to display unit; included indoor display unit has USB port to weewx software in PC. Outdoor unit runs on any high capacity severe service duracell or like dry cells batts. 1 set has run almost 2 yrs for me

Hiya, apologies if this topic came up before or in case I am off-topic here. I'm toying with SDR and home automation on a Raspberry Pi and would like to add weather data via WeeWX and a weather station. Is there any particular brand / model I should go for or maybe avoid? Am looking for
