Now, this depends on various factors:
a) what does "modestly priced" mean for you ? (price range - upper limit)
b) what do you mean exactly by "raw data" - what is it supposed to look like ? c) is USB a must or just "having used so far" ? could it also be WiFi or LAN (via a WiFi router/access point) ?
d) what's your use case/scenario ?
e) any plans for extension/expansion (e.g. wanting to use more, different sensors) ? f) do you need a display console or is viewing live data on a smartphone or old tablet enough/acceptable ? g) what's your "processing infrastructure" ? e.g. a RaspberryPi (models 3 or 4B) h) do you want a more "integrated" solution (outdoor sensor array) or a more distributed solution (separate sensors and locations) ?

Depending on the answers to these questions, a +/- tailored proposal/suggestion could be made based on FineOffset/Ecowitt weather station/sensor combinations and maybe some additional tools like weewx and even some more


There are many (more) modern Fine Offset / Ecowitt (clone) solutions available, which can also be nicely handled by weewx.

If you want to know what can be combined (console with sensors) in the FineOffset/Ecowitt ecosystem, have a look at https://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=40730.0 (free of charge registration required to see pictures)

P.S. if you don't want to go public with the answers to a) thru h), reply to my mail address only

Thanks for full and helpful information.

Sounds ideal, actually. I need USB connection for further processing locally and I can handle upload to e.g. Met office Wow myself.

Hard to find a modestly priced system that supports local output of mor e-or-less raw data. Recommendations for alternative, more modern, setups that permit this would be welcome.

    This looks like a clone of the old Fine Offset WH1080 weather
    station which is no longer sold by Ecowitt due to old technology.
    Console connectivity is USB only, no WiFi, no connection to the
    weather networks. No solar sensor either. (a solar panel for
    running the outdoor array, yes).
    The outdoor array is likely to be not compatible to the modern
    WiFi consoles and gateways like GW1000/GW1100/GW2000 due to using
    a different modulation for the sensor signal transmission. This is
    also true vice versa - the WH1080 console cannot receive any of
    the modern FineOffset/Ecowitt sensors.

    Certainly looks like it might be but would appreciate confirmation.
