Hi
Im looking to see if anyone has had success in setting up a long range weather data transmision.
im currently using davis devices to send me data from 3 stations spread out within 6 miles from home base to relay info such as wind speed and direction for agricultural purposes (spraying) using vantage connect(Cellular uploading of data)
this setup is a ten out of ten.
but i want to have 10 to 15 stations optimaly scattered within 6 miles, say.
the yearly upkeep an davis vantage connect isn't economically sound.
ive looked into repeaters but id need too many of them.
i got into Microcontrollers recently (aduino, etc) and discovered the endless possibilities but am having a difficult time finding info related to wx longe range data transmission
i dont need the data on the internet just a local receiver/display to display the wind speed and direction.
is there anyone out there with the same idea but more developed than me or just someone to steer e in the right direction.
I would appreciate any advice concerning the above.
Thanks
