Based entirely on the Practical Arduino Weather Station Receiver project, I have created my first arduino shield.
I have a BIOS/Thermor DG950R weather station (purchased from Jaycar), and whilst the Practical Arduino project sketch is for a La Crosse weather station, I have rewritten the Practical Arduino code to receive, decode and output the weather information from the DG950R. This allows me to capture the data, and store in a database.
Once I have finished fine tuning the sketch for the DG950R, I will upload it for all to see.

[...] can also take a look at the ThermorWeatherRx Protoshield I soldered up after the recent SparkFun [...]
I’ve just done a blog post on the Practical Arduino site pointing to this page, and added a reference to it at the bottom of the Weather Station Receiver project page. I hope that’s OK.
Cheers :-)

Hi Jon – No problems, thanks for the mention :)

Any update on the code? i’d love to see it! :)
Hello,
Thanks for the post, I am looking forward to trying this out.
I do have one question. I live near a race track that I believe transmit timing between scoring stations and was wondering if they might be sending out the signals at the same frequency? Don’t laugh if I seam way off, I am very new to the arduino world.
Thanks
Gerry
