  If your La Crosse Technology Weather Station isn't showing outdoor temperature/humidity, try these steps: * Remove and reinsert batteries, starting with the remote thermo/hygro sensor, then the indoor weather station. * Ensure the remote thermo/hygro sensor is closer to the indoor weather station. * Make sure all batteries are new. * Eliminate nearby interfering electrical sources such as computer monitors, TVs, headphones, or speakers. Remember the signal travels in a straight line, and electrical interference along that path can disrupt it.
