Other weather stations

Hi
I'm looking to install a few weather stations and I've been shopping around - looking at a variety of bits of kit (notably from ukweathershop) and came across quite a few that I haven't seen mentioned here. Before I rule them out as they don't interface with Cumulus, could anyone tell me if they actually do (or will do in V.2) ?

ProX and ProX2?

VT-W928 (ventus?)

Any of the weather wizards?

Cheers

Steve

In general terms it's either obvious that it's supported because of the name (for non-Fine Offset), or if it's a Fine Offset it will look like a Fine Offset and come with Easyweather. I don't believe any of those that you mention are supported. It's possible that I might support the Davis Weather Wizard one day (because the protocol is available) but unlikely (because not many people have one).

The most likely stations I will add support for next are the OS WMR100 and 200, possibly followed by the Peet Bros stations.

I was looking to buy a Ventus W928 and would prefer to use Cumulus. On the website I was looking at it says it is MyDEL does this means it will work with Cumulus? http://www.hamradio.co.uk/acatalog/Weat ... tions.html. Advise please.
BTW I want it to work with Windows 7 64 bit. Many thanks.

No, it's not a Fine Offset.
