The Draycote Weather Station
uses a Huger WMR918H system. All the sensors are radio linked to the base
station in the OD box. We use WeatherView32 software which logs the weather,
does a pretty display on the computer at the club, and uploads the main
weather page every 15 minutes including the web cam picture.
The system also uploads a racing course
that is suitable for prevailing conditions; when it's running.
The course software was written by
Mike Deane, and has virtually eliminated boring, predictable courses.
