I was a member of Vale of Clwyd car club for a while and we based our Clwyd Classic out of The Druid at Llanferes. It’s a stunning part of the Country.

Thanks for this! Wonder where in Bryniau Clwyd you are? It’s an area I know well through classic rallying.

Cheers.. What are FARS and Stephenson? I'm a complete newbie to all this? Ta! Kev

Thanks, now I understand. Why the prompt to Cumulus MX though? I remember the site from my days with an elderly WatSon station and I 'sort of' remember trying the software.. It's a while ago though. I really do appreciate your help and replies.

Thanks so much for the reply, I'm now a bit more confused! Me being thick.... Why do I need a data logger? Does the Davis not transfer directly to the internet? My PC is online 24/7 and my Bresser sends information directly to Wunderground, do Davis not connect directly? Apologies for the newbie questions.

Thanks for reading and apologies if this an old topic resurrected. I've just found the forum and would really appreciate any advice given from the members. I'm an outdoors - sea fishing, shooting, scuba diving and amateur radio(!) - sort of person, my current station is a Bresser 5 in 1 which has got me back into weather watching and keeping an eye on local trends. The bug has bitten and I'd really like to upgrade to a Davis but I am confused by what the options are regarding uploading my data to the internet, Wunderground for one but I'd like to expand this to other sites. I have a fairly quick PC that has a LAN connection via Cat 5 to my router, which is my best option, please? I've asked a couple of PWS retailers and they just send me links expecting me to understand what they are saying. I'm being a bit lazy and would really appreciate someone explaining my best options, if that is possible? My primary requirement is for wind speed and direction measurement - if this gets too strong or from the south I have a tilt-over mast for my antenna, my secondary measurements are rainfall, pressure and then temperature. Air quality would be nice, but maybe in the future. As above, the future may see me add sensors, so it looks like a Vantage Pro may well be the unit I aspire to. For any Davis users, please, do tell me why the Davis is so well regarded? All the best Kev
