Re: How important is THUM? #APCC

Its always better to have real local data from a device, but you can get a free Open WeatherMap API key and use that. with the Observing Conditions ASCOM Driver.
The free one is more than enough for what we use it for.

I've carefully configured everything including horizon and meridian limits. Tonight it will be clear so I will test out the pointing model feature for pointing and tracking. In the manual I read about
the THUM device.
Curious how much benefit this would give when compared to just inputting temp and pressure manually? It's a relatively small investment to purchase so if there is a significant benefit I'm not opposed to it. Thank you,
