Use this map to refine your lat / lon. http://www.doogal.co.uk/LatLong.php

You should have moon.bmp in the images folder. There should be multiple images in that folder.

You don't seem to have an images folder on your server; there's one in the webfiles folder, so if you selected everything in the webfiles folder and copied it to the server, you should have ended up with one on the server. Just copy it over.

Regarding it not updating; please attach a screen shot of your internet settings screen. Also, turn on ftp logging, leave it for half an hour or so while it should have been updating, and then attach the ftplog.txt file here.

Ok chaps websites up and running but i want to change the position of the station. At the moment its on the gable side of my house about 2m above the roof which is getting accurate wind data but the rain sensor is getting blown all over and showing large amounts of rain even on dry days.

My plan is to move the temp guage and rain sensor about 20m away from the wind sensors. I think that all i need is a 25m Rj11lead with 4 cores which sre selling on ebay for a few quid . Is this the right cable for the job in hand?
