Hi Graham,

Is your weather website still online @ http://www.gjfoote.com

Couldn't seem to get it to come up up..???

Hi Mark,

Apologies for not responding sooner. Just finished up on a major project with my employer, so I have been able to get a little time to myself.
Yes the website is now at http://weather.gjfoote.com just making the URL a little more readable.
Finally got to install my TX unit outside only yesterday and hooked up to the wind and rain sensors (need to reset rain counter). I will move the temp/humidity sensor into a temp place in the next few days, until I have built the Stevenson screen (may be in the next 2 months).

Update.
Well it has been a slow battle due to trying to find enough time, but I have now got outside data coming in.
Last night we had heavy rains, alas only to find that it hadn't measured any. On closer inspection I had to totally remove the home of a thoughtful spider who thought that this rain gauge belonged to them.
Next up, I couldn't understand why my wind vane was not providing the correct direction since I certainly had enough wind. Again, RTFM, I had not put in JP2 on the board, which for my wind vane I needed.
Installed the 10W solar panel, well almost installed (it lays on the house roof) and now I see a charge going into the TX.
About to finish off my version of a Stephenson screen and then shift the HTU21D into it.

There's a manual?

Hi Uncle_bob, you made me chuckle. I must admit, it took all of the articles in Silicon Chip and searching this forum to find my manual (well in my head that is).

I have to admit, I have been able to hone my soldering skills, learn a new coding system, enhance my fault finding to finally achieve a desired system, just retrieving it from my brain is the slow part.

I promise I will take some more pictures, TX unit is housed but the WD is sitting naked near the TV.

BTW, I did modify the WD to use a luminescence sensor to shut the display off when the lights are off. That way when we have the lounge lights off watching a movie, we are not having to contend with a display :-).
