Hello Wayne. Apologies for dredging up an old thread, but I acquired a brand new in-box Davis weather station, including the WMII base unit (for all of £14 in a charity shop!). For the avoidance of doubt, I assume you were using an official Davis serial interface? Just trying to scope what I will require to achieve what I'm after w/ the kit.
Many thanks!
