Hi All, Thanks for the feedback, very much appreciated.
@mksm... thanks, I will try your suggestions. Funny because I was originally told to use a 17cm antenna, I'm surprised to hear you mention 31cm ?? Regarding the SDR, it is a solution to capture the broadcasts from the Acurite 5n1 sensor directly, ie. no need for the weather display. You can read more here: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/sdr-rpi-recipe Actually, I have build 3 weather stations and the first one is using the acurite display which then connects to the pi via USB cable, and I found it to have a lot of challenges to keep it online. Even with a USB hub for continuous power, it goes offline often and needs a certain procedure to get things online again. When I learnt about the SDR solution I was really hopeful that it would be a 100% reliable solution but I'm disappointed to find that there are still challenges, although less than with the display option. Thanks, Sean. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
