Default Davis raing gauge (was November 2007 near Dundee)

Hi, you were lucky at least you had the filter mine arrived without one.
May I ask a question I have changed mine to metric but the readings are
virtually non existant when it is raining, Tipping the bucket manually gives
a reading OK but dribbling water in at a very slow rate produces incorrect
readings. On the old Monitor you did a calibration cahnge but I assume on
the Vantage Pro this is automatic.

Any ideas?

Raymond

Mine blew away on about the third day.


It is only a small thing, but it's annoying, because bits of stuff do
occasionally end up in the gauge.

I could cover it with something, I suppose, but I'm not sure what would be
best.

Perhaps I should ask Davis for my money back.
