Questions about Davis VP 2 Siting

You enjoy arguing, don’t you. :wink:
This is a hobbyist home owner type system. And that’s the market they have always catered to for 20 years.

If you want a professional station that is designed for proper siting and not install convenience then purchase one of those. Such as: http://www.columbiaweather.com/WeatherStations.html

Hundreds of the Vantage Pro 2s I’m sure have been sold because of Brian and WD and this forum, your going over the same ground that has been discussed numerous times on here. I’m betting the 99% of those folks are completely happy with their Davis purchase. You really should step back, take a deep breath and just enjoy the hobby, and stop obsessing so much about it. It’s JUST a hobby…well for most of us anyway.
