I think it is a good thing it uses 915 MHz as that frequency cuts through man-made barriers better than 433 MHz. I remember reading YEARS ago police and security in metro areas like 900 MHz on their walkie talkies in buildings for this reason. I can attest to this as my WS-1080, WS-2080, and WS-2095 would lose their reception of the signal every once in awhile at 433 MHz. My WS-2902A is installed in the EXACT same position and it shows 5 bars all the time. It hasn't lost its signal yet. Mine is about 50' away going through one wall with aluminum siding on the house.
Davis weather station consoles all seem to have their antennas on the outside of the console while the Fine Offset stations have a internal wire antenna. This probably explains why Davis claims 1000' line of sight. Didn't the earlier WS-2092 (non-A) claim 400' line of sight on the back of the box?
