Thanks for the suggestions. I've got a temporary solution with the weather station at a height of about 2.5m (at the bottom of the garden so well away from the house) but I'll have a look at the siting guide for ideas abut a better solution. Regards, David

Hello, I've just bought a Watson W-8686 to replace an old Maplin Weather station which has started to fail. The mounting pole I was using for the Maplin isn't substantial enough for the Watson as the mounting brackets supplied with it appear to be for a 2" (or 50mm) mounting pole and the Maplin one is much thinnner. I've had a look through other posts on this board and it looks like there are a few people with the W-8686 so I am wondering what anyone else has used for mounting it. I am not planning to attach it to the house as I want it to be reasonably accessible so a pole which could be attached to a post would be ideal. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks, David
