[OZAPRS] Wx Stations

[The Shack by the Beach]

My setup has been running for a few years now without problems. I use
the following for a "Rolls Royce" web-based setup:

a) La Crosse 2307 weather station bought off Ebay approx $200. Cheap
and works reliably with a wind/rain/humidity/temp reading every 8
seconds if you replace the standard interlinking cables with Cat 5
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) network cable.
b) Weather Display software that takes the data from any Weather
station with a serial output
http://www.weather-display.com/index.php
c) Weather Display creates a file every 5 mins that is used by uiview
d) Weather Display and other software creates a web page with my weather data
http://www.theshackbythebeach.com/wx/wxindex.php
e) My weather station also feeds wind data to the Seabreeze wind
website for Gerroa
http://www.seabreeze.com.au/graphs/nsw2.asp
f) Data is also fed to Weather Underground
