The WS-2000 with its outdoor array only is supported by the weewx
Interceptor driver (and the console custom server feature for WU protocol).
However, when it comes to more and extra sensors like WH31-type,
lightning, PM2.5, Soil Moisture etc.,
the interceptor driver will not process this info neither will the
console send it.
Then the simplest, cheapest and most reliable way is to get yourself an
Ecowitt GW1000/GW1100 (915 MHz) and have weewx read the data from there
via the GW1000 API driver.

There may be ways to use the WS-2000 without a GW-1100, but I doubt it
would be worth the effort.
The GW1000/GW1100 driver for WeeWx is so utterly reliable it makes the
$35 investment the best money spent.

A quick google search pointed me to (this

link on wxforum.net <http://wxforum.net> saying the weewx-sdr
driver (link) <https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-sdr> will
work, but you'll need the antenna and receiver dongle for that.
My setup (link <https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011HVUEME>)
from this time last year is no longer available it seems, but it
cost about $35 when I bought mine a while back and worked great
with weewx in quick testing. There are lots of similar ones in
the $ 40-45 range with one example (here
<https://www.amazon.com/NooElec-NESDR-Smart-Bundle-R820T2-Based/dp/B01GDN1T4S>)
but I don't know if there are particular models that are good or
bad these days.

Hi,
I have an Ambient Weather WS-2000 and understand it's not
well-supported, if at all. Are there simple docs available
that explain
the setup process?
I've seen references in the archive to a "GW1000" and the
"Fine Offset"
sensors, but don't fully understand what that all means.
Is it necessary to purchase additional equipment to make the
WS-2000
work properly? Is there a firmware update involved?
Thanks,
Alex
