Question for all.

Do have to have a Davis VP system for this to work?

I'm sure its obvious you do, but I'm asking for curiosities sake.

If I had to guess I would say no.  If the forecast is included with the client files I think WDL would use it no matter what station you use.  But I'm just guessing...

David,

Check this and see if this is the right one.  ftp://tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/forecasts/zone/co/coz039.txt

Thanks for your continued help Chuck.

I gave it a try, and the file seems more like a local forecast, but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm still just getting "---" on the WDL page.

I guess I didn't wait long enough!  Now I need to work on the position and space a bit more...  Maybe tomorrow.   

Thanks again Chuck, Bob, Dan and everyone else who helped me set this up.
