Has anyone looked at suporting the BIOS BW976 and related weather stations?
I was thinking of adding support by using the already written ws9xxd daemon
which creates a socket to read from. Unfortunately, I don't have any
python experience but I can learn.

I've been digging through the simulator.py file and I was hoping for some
help translating the data from the socket to the wfrog data formats. I'm
also not sure how to tell wfrog what the capabilities of the weather
station are. I see some of that like setting th_sensors, but I'm not sure
what other things I can define.

The ws9xxd code is open and the weather station shows up as an HID device,
but USB programming is a bit beyond me so writing a python USB driver for
wfrog is out of the question for me.

I got the Bios home weather station as a gift some time ago and have lost
all instructions and software which came with it. Does anyone know where I
can download the instructions and where to get the software?
