VII. MOUNTING Note: Before permanently mounting, ensure that the indoor weather station is able to receive signals from the sensors and WWVB signal at the desired location. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting the remote thermo/hygro sensor (or any sensor) where direct sunlight can reach the remote sensor. We recommend that you mount the remote sensor on a North-facing wall or under an eve. The sending range of the remote thermo/hygro sensor is 300-ft (100m) however o
