First tests with non standard sensors
#2

I'm impressed that it even works with that such amount of long cables connected to the TX unit.
The best advice is try to put the TX unit as close to the sensors as possible, and reduce the cable lengths.
I think you are trying to avoid put the TX unit in a box outside of the house, but maybe it's better using a single long cable to supply the power to the TX board, than having a lot of long cables. Most of the sensors are connected directly to the microcontroller pins, so many long cables can cause troubles.

Regarding the wind speed sensor I can't help more than I already did, officially it's a not supported unit, and I never tested it.

I don't know nothing about the rain gauge that you are using, usually they only have a reed switch, and nothing else, maybe yours have anything else that is causing false readings.
The rain gauge usually is the unit less sensible to cable length.

Why not use the tested Fine Offset instruments? They are cheap, and easy to find, at least in Europe.
