I was kind of joking about my test setup or proposed one. (the actual effort would take a lot more thought)
I was suggesting that you do measure your rig against a known valid rain device that you can co-locate or approximate. The Stratus, $37 on Amazon seems to be a good one. I just got one in and I am using it against my WH65 (osprey). With one rain I was .16" osprey vs 0.15 Stratus (there is a 30' distance and 8' height variance ) . Of course that was a single instance so really nothing should be inferred . Also , I hastily mounted the Stratus because of an imminent rain event that I wanted to test, and I have limited mounting options.
If after a period of time, you are getting readings that you are content with vs the rain gauge, well maybe then "you" don't have an issue, and the rain you predominately receive fits with the parameters. Others are reporting variances in their environment that frankly I would not live with, which prevents me from purchasing a wh40.
I am curious on why you have decided to blindly accept the measurements of your WH40 after having read through the previous 5 pages of this thread, and seem to want to argue it. Especially without a comparison point?
