Lacrosse CA80550 Weather Station and Weewx

[Harry P]

Do I have any chance of having Weewx work with my Lacrosse CA80550 Weatherstation?

Really new to this so  I hope I don't annoy anyone.  Thank You

it looks like the wifi in that weather station is receive-only - it pulls forecasts from the us nws.  if the station *sends* data, for example to weather underground, then you can use the weewx-interceptor extension to capture the data.  if the station has a usb or other communication port, then it might be possible to pull data using that interface.

otherwise, your only option would be to purchase a usb sdr dongle and use the weewx-sdr extension to capture data from the wind and temperature sensors directly.

here is a guide for how to do it with acurite sensors:

the process is the same for lacross sensors
