you can easily add more sensors with a USB SDR - just run another instance of weewx on the same pi, and add any number of sensors. keep the weather station configuration as-is. here is a general guide to different ways you can collect data from multiple sensors: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/intake-strategies and this is a general guide for how to combine the data: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/dashboards here is an explicit example of how to do it using temperature and humidity sensors from acurite or from fine offset: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/sdr-rpi-recipe sensors from other vendors work in a similar way. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
