Default Recommendation for home weather station

This site covers weather stations from very basic through to sophisticated
plus books on weather, atomic clocks and all sorts:-

Hope you find it as useful as me although I am still undecided as to whether
(sic) to expand my wireless Oregon, homemade rain gauge and aneroid wall
barometer!

I am contemplating treating myself to a home weather station this
Christmas, measuring all the usual weather variables. Must have indoor
instrumentation, linked (preferably) by cable, and must have serial
output for PC processing.

Recommendations anyone?

If you're looking to spend around £150, you can get the WS2300, which has a
serial port pc connection. It measures all the normal weather variables,
and has indoor sensors for temp and humidity. It comes with software so
current conditions can be sent to your site. Theres an example of it at my
site www.dudleyweather.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk

This is the model

Hope that helps

Bewa if it's faulty, Skyview will not refund the postage to return it.
My WS-3600 was faulty; it cost be nearly GBP10 to send it back and they
refused to refund postage, stating it was in their terms and conditions. I
have since found out that they should have done, under whatever law it
is that covers mail ordering. Unfortunately I've lost the receipt of postage
by now.

No hesitation in recommending Prodata.
Bad experience with Skyview several years ago, they have not changed by the
sound of it!
