Hey Guys:

Who all uses a Kestrel Weather station? My husband and I have been looking at different weather stations. I've seen the ones hanging from trailers with pagers and yes, they are very expensive. Don't want one that needs a laptop. Being his crew chief you never know how long you will be up in the staging lanes and the weather does change drastically. The hand held ones look great, but when you have to carry 2 tire gauges, a soft drink, cell phone and your smokes, it is really hard to carry one more piece of equipment. Pretty soon, I will be needing a tool belt.

Hey Barney and Tom Dimond you have seen me in the staging lanes at Norwalk and Trails it gets a little difficult if you know what I mean.

We are currently using an old style Compu Tech and I think it has gotten a little bit inaccurate with it getting hit by rain a few times

Just need a little bit of advice or if you know who has one on sale without breaking the bank

Thanks.
