Hi there,
I have had the WMR-968 for about 3 years nows. It has basically worked
flawlessly. The only real complaint I have is that hygrometer only works
to -10 C. Below that temp the RH reading flatlines at whateever it was at
when the temp hit -10 C. It stays that way until the temp goes back
above -10 C. Turns out that is the operational limit of the unit.
Problem is up here in Canada the temp can stay below -10 C for weeks in the
winter. (Of course once you get much below -10 C relative humidity doesn't
really mean very much anyway)
I use Freewx-WI as my weather program and it does a good job of
compensating for the bad RH reading below -10 C. It doesn't upload the RH
to the weather underground, APRS or my weather page when the temp is
below -10 C. No data for a reading is better than bad data!
