Hi Don,

If you want to create a weather web page and upload to CWOP and 
WeatherUnderground, the choice is either VWS or WeatherDisplay 
(WeatherView32 does not support CWOP) for the Peet Bros weather 
station.  WeatherDisplay does fully support the Peet protocol (I have 
the a Peet Ultimeter 2000/2100 and WeatherDisplay) so I suspect you do 
not have the communications parameters or station type not configured. 
Another issue might be you are attempting to run more than one software 
data logger with a single COM port feed which is not possible.

Send me an email directly to dshelms at comcast.net and I will get you 
on-line with WeatherDisplay so you can make a better final decision.

Dave

P.S.  You might want to check out the cwop.info as it lists all the 
weather station and software data logger combinations that support CWOP; 
FreeWx supports the RadioShack and Oregon Scientific weather stations only.
