Hello WeatherFlow. My SKY came in today and set it up. It works nicely. I’m not getting constant wind speeds. The speed even goes down to 0.00 Mph. Any idea what could cause this issue and how to fix it? Also do you know of any mounts that I could buy that would work for the SKY to mount it -a flat…

Hello Peter. Thank you for the response. I have changed the location where im going to mount the SKY. I’m going to mound it on the side of fake chimney. So I am going to need a vertical mount. Any ideas in this type of mount?

Hi @gamerster120 Stoked you finally got the SKY in hand, thanks for waiting so long. On initial setup, SKY goes through automated calibration routines on the sonic sensors. It needs to receive wind from the four cardinal directions to ensure the frequency timing of the sonic waves are consistently…

So I have a chimney that I want to place a mount on with a pole for the Sky to sit on. Does anyone have any ideas of a good mount I could buy?

Search Google for “chimney antenna mount”

Just wondering if the ‘N’ on the SKY should be on the north or south face? ie. if you had a birds eye view of it the N would be on the north point or south point (aiming north). Any diagrams on how its setup? Thanks heaps Simon

Thanks Gary! So it would be on the face closest to North correct?
