Hey, Paul - if you're looking for a remote weather station that can be solar powered and use strictly APRS; check out the Argent Data ADS-WS1 (www.argentdata.com)
I've developed 2 stations using these (KC7RAS-8 and N7QNM-10). KC7RAS-8 is on top of the Columbia Center in Downtown Seattle and has "shore power", N7QNM-10 is completely self-contained. They both transmit weather data over APRS (2M packet on 144.39), that's viewable using www.aprs.fi or anyone's APRS client. It looks like maybe KC7RAS-8's anemometer is down, that's a pretty harsh environment (76 stories up over downtown Seattle) and it's blown away is 66MPH+ gusts a couple of times. My station, N7QNM-10 is suffering from a degraded solar panel or messed up charge controller; so the readings from it may be a few days old as well (N7QNM-10 has been operational for close to 4 years). Feel free to drop me a direct email if you have any other questions.

The Weather Underground display looks like just what I want, but I would like my remote station weather to transmit over the net without a computer hooked up--thus perhaps the Weatherbridge device...I wonder if folks have used this successfully. -Paul, N1HEL _________________________ On 3/2/2014 12:33 PM, W8OV wrote: > With my Davis Vantage Pro2 station I use Virtual Weather Station from > <http://www.ambientweather.com/software.html> which can put my weather > data on a Weather Underground Personal site that can be read on the > web.
