Hallo good to hear that you fixed your station : ) Is yours the same station as the one in the link, or something different ? There are various weather stations with a completely different display consul, using the same outside unit as ours. If the electronics are the same I cannot tell : )...

Good afternoon Gio82c, We have sunshine : ) The larger capasiter charged OK, but the unit still had the same problems, there was nothing else I could do. I purchased a new weather staion of the same type but different brand name. Farnel are selling them at £105.28 inc post, very quick...

Good evening Manikm99 from Mullion Cove Cornwall : ) A Technomate TM-5402 HD M3 C1 Super+ Which has a much faster blind scan than my old Technomate I also have an Amiko Viper4K. There are several options to download different operating systems, installed via a USB stick. This also has a...

I wish LOL Looking across Goonhilly Downs yesterday : ) Just changed the picture for the correct one, the previous one was the radar golf ball at Culdrose. God Bless Spiff

Reply Thank you for your input pgh13, I have ordered from a UK seller for speed, the capacity is higher but that should not be a problem. Super Capasitor Link The shape is different but there is room, hopefully it will resolve the problem, we shall see : ) God Bless Spiff

Hallo Channel Hopper, Thank you for the link. I had 60 days to try the equipment, there is some time left I think but it is hard going with the weather, it would have been better if I had tried it in the summer. We certainly tried our best and spent a lot of time on it, despite freezing hands...

Good evening Channel Hopper, A Happy New Year to you and your family : ) Both the aerials had mounts that were designed for vertical polarization. We swung the beams many times in all directions, at our location in Mullion Cove at the bottom of the cliff. We also tested it up on the cliff top...

Good afternoon from a sunny but chilly Mullion Cove Cornwall. We spent some time soon after it arrived and then again recently after all the rain and winds stopped : ) I could not send Alanna up on the roof in that weather, I am not totally heartless LOL We used a telescopic mast, trying both...

Thank you Topper God Bless Spiff
