Default Digital Barometer

Can anyone recommend a good quality digital barometer with a USB connection.
Looked at Conex Weather Jack on www.starpath.com but the Conex web site is
"under construction" so I cannot verify accuracy from manufacturers web
site. I would appreciate any first hand experiances on this or similiar
devices.
Thanks
David

I used to have a Conex WeatherJack. It was a neat device. Unfortunately
they sent out an upgrade via a new processor chip and the thing never
worked well again. If they worked out the kinks (this was 4 years ago)
it is a nice device. The one I had operated through a serial port but
perhaps a USB version is available now.

The Davis Vantage Pro, is a complete weather station (a very good
wireless one at that)

They have a serial and and usb link to your computer that is an
option. There are very good prices on the Davis stuff at:

Good stuff. I have it on my boat.

Best,

Steve

Consider looking at "Oregon Scientific" Complete Wireless Weather Station
WMR968. It clams to be PC compatible and comes with a solar-powered wind
speed anemometer, thermo-humidity, barometer and rain gauge. May meet your
needs for an onboard PC_Combatable weather monitoring station.

Call the folks at Conex, per their web site: 800 645 1061. I have the
parallel port Weatherjack and find it very useful and cheaper than any
barograph I've seen.
