I was referring to weewx-ecowitt (link) <https://github.com/gjr80/weewx-gw1000> but I don't know if Ecowitt supports backfill or not. I don't need an archive here for my Ecowitt gear, just current readings.
Ecowitt has too many components for me to keep track of, but I'm sure the Ecowitt forum on wxforum.net (link) <https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?board=111.0> has somebody who knows for certain regarding compatibility of consoles vs. sensors. Cheapest hardware setup is to buy the sensors you want and the $30 gateway to integrate them so weewx can pick up all the readings from the gateway, then display Belchertown (or any other skin) to a $40 Kindle Fire 7 or bigger display. Once you get the data into weewx displaying it is the easy part.
