Hi,
I wish the "hot links" were more "contrasty". Originally, I didn't realise they were there!
I don't believe that either of the "Fine Offset" protocols that you've linked above are correct for their complete Weather Stations. The first link is "similar", but the stations use data packets of 8, 10 and 11 bytes (depending on the data being carried). The last byte is a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) not a simple checksum. The second "Watson" transmitter link looks exactly like a "La Crosse" T/H sensor that I have - Oh the joys of "Badge Engineering"!
As far as I can see, the FO protocol is completely different to that used by Oregon (and Arduino/Weatherduino?). I believe quite a lot of "research" into the FO protocol has been done on the Raspberry Pi forum. So I think you can assume that the AuriolDuino is NOT directly compatible.
The data tranmission format(s) that Weatherduino can use is also of interest to me. My own project is a homebuilt "Solar Sensor" that is "Fully Compatible" with the FO "Solar Pod" (i.e. it will transmit the standard 8-byte FO data packet). It might be possible to arrange my software to also transmit WeatherDuino format data (when I discover what it is), but that will be ever further along my (very slow) development path.
Cheers, Alan.

As far as I can tell AuriolDuino only decodes signals from Auriol transmitters even though I see the Oregon Scientific protocol described here.
