    The Solar/UV/Wind gauges on a VP2 wireless (not sure about the 
non-wireless version) can be lengthened with the Davis extension 
cables.  I've done this here mounting my Solar/UV/Wind gauges on top of 
a 30' pole, and while the ISS is about 8' from the ground.  All working 
from the ISS unit w/o using an extra channel.
