W/m

Sounds like someone stepped into another W/m turd! With that unit first, you will be checking the battery every 6 months. The lithiumn battery does not hold up good to hot, even worse with extreme cold. If possable replace with the wired SlW-1 It has been a much more reliable unit. ;)

My antenna wire isn't long enough to protrude outside the case, and it has a thick, black covering over the last 2.5" of the wire.

SLW15

8| When you install the wireless hub into the controller, make sure the antenna wire is hanging out below the controller, The weathermatic tech I called and talked to, told me this info and It worked for me. I had a slw15 that was 10 feet away, and would not even connect

If there is any amount of masonry or steel in the line between sensor and receiver, the operation of wireless accessories will be greatly impaired.

Once sensors get past the simple rain/freeze sensor level they tend to get brand specific.
I don't know that you'll find another brand that works with your controller.

Have you verified it is the sensor and not a problem in the controller?

Replacement for Weathermatic Smartline Weatherstation

Can anyone recommend a better, more reliable replacement for the Weathermatic Smartline SLW15 weather station? Mine constantly looses contact with the controller, and it records erroneous temperatures. It's been replaced once.
