Interference:  

 

Consider items in the signal path between the outdoor sensor and the weather 

station.  

 

Sometimes a simple relocation of the outdoor sensor or the weather station will 

correct the interference. 

 

Windows can reflect the radio signal.  

 

Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal. 

 

Stucco has a metal mesh that absorbs signal. 

 

Avoid transmitting antennas: (ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, 

military bases, etc.) 

 

Electrical wires (utilities, cable, etc.) 

 

Vegetation is full of moisture and reduces signal. 

 

It is difficult for RF (radio frequency) signal to travel through a hill.
