Everybody talks about it, everybody is affected by it - the weather. Do I need the heavy coat today, or is a wind breaker sufficient? Should I take the umbrella or not? Observing the weather is a fascinating occupation for all nature lovers and a very interesting extension to the hobby, not only for radio amateurs. So what's more obvious than to install your own weather monitor?
Peet Bros. company is a manufacturer of premium weather stations. The offered systems differ vastly from the cheap weather displays which you find at any department store - in quality and in the nearly endless possibilities. The sensors are individually made and hand calibrated for best accuracy. A large number of options allows you to build up your personal weather station up to a nearly professional system.
Peet Bros. offers three basic models of weather stations: the Ultimeter® 100, Ultimeter® 800 and Ultimeter® 2100. The capabilities and possible options for each device is shown in the table below.

Wind vane and anemometer included
With each Ultimeter weather station a reliable weather vane, an anemometer (Wind speed) and an outdoor thermometer is included. An optional rain gauge can be connected to any of the models. Further sensors can be connected to the model 800 and 2100.
Long term menory
The long term memory offers the possiblity to record min. and max. values over a longer time period and recall them on request. Nine memories record the daily extremes, those of the last 7 days amd one more permanent record.
Connection of sensors
Like with all professional weather equipment, the sensors are connected by cable, and not wireless. This results in much better reliability and faster update rates. All sensors are connected to a central junction box, which also supplies all devices with power. The computer or APRS radio can be connected to the junction box or to the display unit.
Long cables supplied
All units and options come with extra long cables for ease of installation: 12m for the wind vane/anemometer, 7.5m for the outdoor temperature sensor. The cable between the junction box and the disply/keybiard unit is 240cm long, the power supply cable 180cm. Alle data cables can be extended very easily and to nearly any length, if required.
The wind vane/anemomenter is best installed on top of a mast (not to the side), we are happy to offer you a suitable mast tube. Since this sensor works with magnetic reed contacts a non-magnetic tube is preferred (aluminium, stainless steel or similiar).
Ideal for APRS:
Several APRS ready radios, like the new Kenwood TM-D710E offers a direct connection for Peet weather stations. Go on the air in no time with your personal APRS weather broadcast. Works also with WxTrak APRS for practically any other radio, or with a usual Packet Radio TNC.
Of course all Peet Weather Stations are suitable for european power systems, a 230V power supply is included. The units of all weather data is selectable, for example °C or °F, metric system, nautical system or imperial system for other values.
For permanent backup of settings and long term memories a 9V block batteryis required (not included).
Perhaps you just need a basic weather station – wind speed, wind direction, outdoor temperature and possibly rainfall. Even so, you have every right to expect that your system will be just as reliable and accurate as the most elaborate top-of-the-line system. Rest assured that our Ultimeter 100 uses the same top-quality sensors, including the incomparable Ultimeter PRO Anemometer, featuring exceptional response in all wind conditions, including very low wind speeds (typical starting threshold 1.5 mph! here's why). It also uses the same great data processing as our renowned 2100 system, including WeatherText® serial data output, and is APRS-ready. A second Serial Data Port connection (new feature) is provided in the Ultimeter 100's sensor junction box, delivering greater flexibility in the location and connection of The Weather Picture (an optional wall-mounted display), PC Weather Data Logger, or other peripheral weather accessory. And it offers the unsurpassed performance and reliability of cabled sensors - the professional's choice. It is unsurpassed as a basic electronic weather station for the professional or serious amateur weather observer.

The Ultimeter 800 is an exceptional value. It includes most of the outstanding features of our Ultimeter 2100 (excluding barometric pressure), and tracks more than 90 weather values. If you require full wind, temperature, and humidity functions, but don't require barometric pressure readings, the Ultimeter 800 offers a host of capabilities (at a very attractive price!):

ULTIMETER® 2100 - best in its class! The much-anticipated successor to our most popular weather station ever (the ULTIMETER 2000, world-renowned standard for performance and reliability in a home weather station), the ULTIMETER 2100 features a stunning platinum-tone housing with brilliant blue display backlighting. To improve the user interface still further, an illuminated keypad provides exceptional visibility in darkness or low-light conditions. The ULTIMETER 2100 utilizes Peet Bros.' patented and proven weather sensor technology, including our unique all-digital wind sensor, incomparable ULTIMETER PRO Anemometer, featuring exceptional response in all wind conditions, including very low wind speeds (typical starting threshold 1.5 mph! here's why). It also features direct serial data output including WeatherText®, and is APRS-ready. And it offers the unsurpassed performance and reliability of cabled sensors - the professional's choice (see Why are cabled sensors better?) It has all the features of its predecessors - all the features you've asked us for - and a few you might not have thought of. Its microprocessor is 8 TIMES FASTER and has 4 TIMES THE MEMORY of our earlier weather stations. Here's what it does with all that power:

Ultimeter TB Rain Gauge
The ULTIMETER TB Rain Gauge features a proven tipping bucket design. Inside each rain gauge is a balanced "see-saw" bucket mechanism. The bucket has a divider wall across the middle, separating it into two halves, each shaped like a miniature coal shovel, with high sides and an open end. The rain gauge's funnel top feeds rain water into one of the half-buckets. As soon as the correct amount of water has been collected, the "see-saw" tips the other way, automatically emptying the water and positioning the other half-bucket for collecting rainfall. Each time the bucket tips, .01" of rainfall is added to the accumulated total on the ULTIMETER weather station. 8-inch diameter collector funnel, for superior rainfall sampling.
Suitable for Ultimeter 800 and 2100
Ultimeter Humidity and Temperature Outdoors
The ULTIMETER Outdoor Humidity/Temperature Sensor utilizes a precision thick-film polymer capacitance device to measure humidity. The sensor is used in a low-frequency oscillator circuit, which changes frequency as the relative humidity of the air changes. The output of the oscillator is fed into the microprocessor. The ULTIMETER Temperature Sensor is a precision aged interchangeable thermistor. Designed for under-eaves mounting, out of direct sun exposure.
Ultimeter Hygrometer Indoors
The ULTIMETER Indoor Humidity Sensor utilizes a precision thick-film polymer capacitance device to measure humidity. The sensor is used in a low-frequency oscillator circuit, which changes frequency as the relative humidity of the air changes. The output of the oscillator is fed into the microprocessor. The sensor can be installed at any location required, like your wine cellar for example...
Temperature sensor Indoor for Ultimeter 100
The indoor thermometer is attached directly to the display unit and enanbles the display and recording of temperatures at the location of the control unit. The same hi quality preaged thermistor sensor is used for best accuracy.
Single Cable Kit
Usually the outdoor sensors are connected with one cable each to the indoor junction box. So that's two or three flat, small cables which have to be fed through the wall. If that is not possible the "Single Cable Kit" helps. Here a weatherproof outdoor junction box is used to collect all cables from sensors, one cable leads indoors.
Data cable for Kenwood
Connect your weather station directly to your new Kenwood transceiver TM-D710E - and be ready to send those APRS weather beacons. Very simple to install and set up.
