I am interested in buying a 'professional' weather station and I am looking to our members for input and feedback on what to buy.
I have a simple temp/humidity unit that I bought from Brookstone about four years ago. It is wireless with 3 remote sensors. But I want more information and I am not happy with battery life and the fact that the sensor outside does not like it (won't xmit) when it is at or below zero. And that is a regular occurance here.

I am interested in temp, humidity, wind, rain, barometer, etc. I'm interested in wireless, but would like to stay away from 900 MHz because I already have problems with my 2.4 GHz phone interfering with the surveillance cameras in the horse barn.
I see that the key manufacturers are Davis, Oregon Scientific, and LaCrosse. Anyone have any feedback on particular models? What is your real world experience with the wireless range under severe temperatures? There are standalone units and units that are driven by PC software. Any feedback on which to chose? Any input on where to buy?
Thanks.....
