weather guages

Can anyone suggest a good set of weather guages? I recently bought an Acu-rite model 00639W.The temperature seems to be incorrect.I also need a dew point reading,but would like to spend under $100.

As I remember you can get dew point off the Goverment charts from wet and dry bulb readings.
The Kesteral hand help units are very good the give you everything but they are in the High $ 350 range
Best one is Kesteral 4000

I have printed out a chart that uses temperature and humidity readings to give a dew point,and seems to be accurate. I now need to find a decent set of gauges. Thanks.

Looks to be some good info. I started to use the Kestral Motorsports model this year. Took me a while to get used to the calibration,

, but once there it worked fine.
