Hardware needed between Davis Vantage Pro to PC for Cumulus

I have had a Davis Vantage Pro for a long time and have not been able to afford the Weather Link software and hardware.
I love you free software solution. What type of hardware do I need to integrate my Davis console with my PC to allow Cumulus to work.
With Cumulus would I still be able to hook to Weather Underground.
Thanks,
Mark

You need the same hardware for Cumulus that Weatherlink uses; you can't connect a Davis station to a PC without additional hardware. Third party alternatives exist, but that's not something I can advise on.
Cumulus can upload to Weather Underground.

Do you have a inexpensive source to purchase the hardware connections?

I think belfryboy is back in production of third party loggers now the Davis green dot logger encryption has been broken.
He does post on this forum from time to time.
