[wxqc] starting again

Yes, it would be nice if Davis VP2 consoles had provisions for selecting 
which wireless transmitter was to be used for *each* of the parameters. 
As it is, I think only the anemometer and secondary temperature / 
humidity transmitters can be designated to be separate from the ISS. I, 
too, would like to put a solar sensor on the roof of my garage at the 
north side of my lot where my anemometer and my house-powering solar 
panel arrays are. My ISS is down on a 5.5' post in middle of the back 
yard with the rain gauge and fan-aspirated solar shield, and has 
intermittent shading in winter from some 80' city-owned trees in the 
parkway next to the street at the south edge of my lot. I don't really 
want to have to dig a trench to get the cable from a solar sensor on the 
garage to the ISS in the middle of the back yard.
