== Will you support a new weather station Xtype? ==
 
It’s quite hard to support a particular weather station when I don’t have access to one. No weather station is perfect, and problems inevitably arise after the code is written, and I have to start adding more and more code to work around issues with the station. Also, most companies don’t seem to like third parties writing software for their stations, so don’t make the protocol available. I will only consider adding support for a station under a certain set of circumstances which would include: payment (i.e. a significant donation towards Cumulus development), a well documented official protocol spec, and loan of a station (at least). Please contact me if you would like to discuss this.
 
*A significant donation towards Cumulus development
*A well documented official protocol spec
*Loan or donation of a station
*Ideally, access to technical support from the station manufacturer
