Would the WH41 in this kit communicate to the WH0290 display and to a HP2560 console at the same time?

Cheers  8-)

Sensors like the WH41 transmit radio signals, but they don't know if any device (or which device) is listening to the broadcast. So more than one console can receive a transmission.

As the WH0290 & WH41 are sold together, the  WH0290 obviously can interpret the transmission from the WH41. And the compatibility chart towards the bottom of the page at the link shows the HP2560 can also display that data. That chart even shows that the HP2560 can support (4) WH41 sensors.

This Wiki is normally a good reference for Ecowitt products: https://meshka.eu/Ecowitt/dokuwiki/doku.php
... but in this case there is very sparse info there on the WH0290.

All sorted.

Amazon UK only had stock of the WH0290 but luckily the standalone WH41 became available from another stockist so bought that instead.

Working great  8-)
