Default Help with choosing an AWS

Definitely DON'T go for the Oregon Scientific. Have a search on the net

and
you will see loads of reports of poor readings and unreliable remote
sensors. Also, be wary about going for a wireless system. They only send
data once every second and can miss out on reading gusting winds

accurately.

You can get the Davis cheaper than you think. Check out the link below...

Hi All,

Looking to purcahse a wireless AWS to supplement my manual observations.

Seems the choice is between a Davis Vantage Pro and the Oregon

Scientific
kit.

Davis is more expensive than the Oregon kit.

I know this has been discussed here before, but any thoughts?

Cheers,
Simon
