So to be clear, what I did was connect via USB to the weather station
console.
Outside unit reports to console, I wanted to read from the console.
It also bears to mention that the unit is "off site", i.e. at the cabin.
In my efforts I have seen some who have used RTL SDR units to get data
directly from the outside unit - I have not tried that. Lack of an SDR unit
.. and skills...
What I *did* have though was an old Windows based laptop lying around.
So I set that up to start the supplied WeatherHome software automatically
on boot, which will populate the WeatherHome.mdb database file - MS Access
I presume.
In addition I setup WSL - Windows Subsystem for Linux - and installed the
"mdbtools" package.
Inside WSL, the "mdb-export" tool inside "mdbtools" was able to export data
from "/mnt/c/ProgramData/WeatherHome/WeatherHome.mdb" and I could send that
data back to my home server.
No, this is not a driver, but at least I'm getting data for now...
So the next thing is getting a proper mapping for "wee_import". Separate
thread I guess.
