It will work, if you will be able to change the Davis Vantage driver handshaking from hardware to none.
Quote:I checked the distance from the transmitter to the receiver. It's 18.5m and the signal has to travel through a metal shed then through 3 rooms that have solid timber walls. All I am using for the antennas are 2 164mm bits of cable that I pulled out of lenght of cat6 network cable.
The reliability of the RF link is one of the strongest points of the WeatherDuino Pro 2 system. Since the beginning it's one of the aspects, that deserves more attention from my side. Thanks for sharing this info.
