Hi, Brian:

Thanks to everyone who took the trouble to answer my questions.
I'll look at the recommended sites and get the Davis model (A retiral
present from my wife)
Thanks again everyone.


I found the Davis software rather inflexible. There's no way, for
instance, of starting the day at 09:00UTC, or rather only by telling the
software it's in Alaska, ie minus 9hrs!


My software (see below) allows this.

I find the WeatherDisplay software from:

suited me better. It must be good: it's organised by another Brian!


But mine's free. And it doesn't look like... No, I'll stop there.

Mine does have a number of shortcomings, though, I'll admit that.
