Thumbs up wind meter and web cam blue hill

I found some people that own property on the beach ( south beach) with broadband internet and I have permision to put something up there.

I will forward any info I get from ikitesurf to you skyway scott.
checked out some good web cams today the problem might be in the usb conection I don't think I can do it wireless.(the usb cable needs to be verry long)
but the weather station will be wireless.

Cost for setting up was not that much. The cost for the equipment was around $260.00
