the product/vendor codes (0713:0818) for that station do not match anything recognized by any of the drivers i have seen

it is definitely not a fine-offset usb model (1080/2080/3080), even though it appears to use the same instruments

i think you will have to reverse engineer the usb protocol.  if you have the software that came with the station, then the reverse engineering process is not too difficult.  unless the manufacturer does something crazy, it typically takes a few hours to get to a point where you can talk to the hardware over USB, then a few days to decode the data, figure out the units, test the corner cases, etc.

I found a person who only sells the WS2800 station without external parts.
In your opinion could it work with my external accessories?

purchase a usb sdr and you should be able to use the weewx-sdr driver to capture data.  this is the recipe for doing that:

I already have a pair of sdr receivers....
do you think it can work well without problems?

at each time I have already installed everything.
just a problem I can not understand this important command to be given:
# see how the sensor data from rtl_433 are mapped to fully-qualified names
sudo PYTHONPATH = / usr / share / weewx python /usr/share/weewx/user/sdr.py --cmd = "rtl_433 -M utc -F json -G"

weewx is installed on raspberry in home / weewx
can you help me to understand the correct command to execute?

please read the wiki page about paths:


assuming that rtl_433 works properly, and if you installed using setup.py to /home/weewx, and if your rtl_433 command is the invocation described in the sdr guide, then you probably want something like this:

sudo PYTHONPATH=/home/weewx/bin python /home/weewx/bin/user/sdr.py --cmd="rtl_433 -M utc -F json -G"

Did you make it work? I received a WS1040 station last Christmas and I wanted to connect it to weewx.
Thank you!
