I'm just thinking of the best way to use the ribbon cables (if that's all I have to work with). or perhaps I'll have to remove them and attach something completely different?

Hi WetCoast,
You shouldn't need to tear into it. You just need to figure which pair of wires need to go.
What I'd do in this case is, cut off the RJ11 connector at the end. Do as Werk advised above. Once that done, solder the wires to PCB RJ11 jacks and terminate them to strip connector or such, then connect your combined anemometer.
Another option that might be easier and better, just cut a phone cord in half and "break out" the correct two pair to either end of the phone cords. IE, make a "Y" type cable.
