[TriLUG] Weather Station

[Mark Turner]

Yep, I have not yet set it up at the new place. My Oregon Scientific 
model is the wired kind and takes a little planning to set up. Its since 
been discontinued: http://www.ambientweather.com/wm918.html

Here's where my stats live. They haven't been updated in 6 months or so:

I was hoping the new wireless Oregon Scientific models would work but so 
far the Linux weather software I use (wx200d.sf.net) doesn't support the 
new, proprietary protocol.

If you're thinking of setting up a station it might be worth the wait 
for the wireless model. A wireless set will let you position the 
instruments at the most ideal location. You might have to put on your 
haXOR hat to get any useful data from it, until someone decodes the 
protocol.

Happy hacking!
