Weather station upgrade Computech vs. Altronics

Jason Fuller · 03-21-2018, 01:17 PM

I recently became inspired to purchase the best hand held weather station that pays contingency.

Has anyone here have any suggestions on these two units? Have you used them before?

I know they both pay contingency and that is a good thing!

Thank you all in advance for your advice, I do appreciate it.

Jason I have the PerformAire unit and have been very satisfied with it. A couple years ago I bought their trailer based PC unit and am well satisfied also, I now carry the handheld unit to the staging lanes with me in case of excessive downtime where dialing might be a challenge in rapidly changing conditions. I think you would be very satisfied with it also, I've never had any experience with the Computech units.

The Computech looks most appealing with the trailer mounted kit and ability to log, and text you.

Does anybody know if you need to spend the extra 300 dollars for the text function? As there is a pager option but, idk if that is the same or for use with a pager....
