Indoor or Outdoor:

Mount outdoor temperature sensor vertically.

Avoid more than one wall between the outdoor sensor and the weather station.

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 196 ft. (60 meters).

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can
reduce the range.

Do not mount near electrical wires, transmitting antennas or other items that
will interfere with the signal.

RF (radio frequency) signals do not travel well through moisture or dirt.
Position Weather station

The weather station has a stand to sit on a desk or table or can be wall
mounted.

Place within range of the outdoor sensor.

The maximum transmitting range in open air is 196 ft. (60 meters).

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal objects can
reduce the range.

Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as cordless phones,
wireless gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc.,
which can prevent signal reception.

Be aware of electrical wires and plumbing within a wall. This will interfere with
RF (radio frequency) signal reception.

For best WWVB reception, orientate the forecast station with the front of the
back facing Ft. Collins Colorado.
Distance/Resistance/Interference
Distance:

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 196 ft. (60 meters)
between the outdoor sensor and the weather station. This range is in open air
with ideal conditions.

Consider what is in the signal path between the weather station and the outdoor
sensor.

Avoid placing electronics in the signal path between the weather station and the
outdoor sensor.
Resistance:

Obstacles such as walls, floors, windows, stucco, concrete and large metal
objects can reduce the range.

When considering the distance between the outdoor sensor and the weather
station 196 ft. (60 meters) open air, cut that distance in half for each wall,
window, tree, bush or other obstruction in the signal path.

Closer is better.

Windows reflect the RF (radio frequency) signal.

Metal absorbs the signal and reduces the range.

Stucco has a metal mesh that absorbs the signal.

Do not mount the outdoor sensor on a metal fence. This significantly reduces
the effective range.
