Curt - sure, I'd love to see it.
I've had a couple of requests about my weather station. You can see
an article that I'm in the process of writing, as well as some pics, at
http://www.mulveyfamily.com/weather/tini/article/ .
Please note that the article is *UNFINISHED*. So if anyone actually
reads it, take that into consideration. ;-)
For anyone who is looking for a cheap APRS weather station - this
isn't is. A TINI + socket board alone will run you about $150. Then
you have to buy/build the weather sensors. But the advantage is that
it's completely stand-alone, and will happily do all your weather
uploading to the net, RF, Weather Underground, web pages, etc, using
less than a watt of electricity. No PC required.
The weather software ( "OpenWeather" ) is open source. The
almost-latest-and-greatest can be retrieved from
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=81616 . Don't even bother with
anything other than the CVS version - the released packages are wildly
out of date. That's on my to-do list to rectify...
