Title: what weather station did I have?
Post by: ANPweather on July 07, 2018, 01:08:46 PM

Time to dust off the old brain cells.

I'm trying to remember what weather station I had as a kid, late 50s, early 60s. It was a gray, vertical plastic panel with three dials: barometer, outside temperature and a wind rose with a light that blinked once per rotation of the anemometer. There was a removable clear plastic cover over the front of the inside unit. Anybody remember what kind it was? maybe have a picture?

I keep thinking it was a Heathkit but a battery, light bulb and some kind of switch doesn't scream electronics. Knightkit? Allied Radio? Olson Electronics? I've searched but haven't had much luck.

Could it have possibly been this?

Nope, that's not it. Thanks, though.
