NOAA Replacing Aging Belfort Digiwx 5-780 rain gages

Quote from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration:

"New equipment currently under evaluation for use with the AIRMoN
program includes the adaptation of several strain gages as potential
replacements for the aging Belfort 5-780" as found at:
http://www.arl.noaa.gov/research/projects/airmon_wet.html

All of Belfort's antiquated equipment will cost you "time and agony"
while trying to decipher the weather information being spewed from a
defective piece of Belfort Instruments Digiwx AWOS products. The U.S.
governement knows it and that is why they're disposing of Belfort's
Digiwx rain gage CRAP. Imagine a company that still sells paper charts
for it's outdated 5-780 rain gages in this day and age of electronic
data captures and digital images. This is the kind of SHIT you can
expect from Belfort Digiwx AWOS!

WHY WOULD YOU BUY ANY OF BELFORT'S DIGIWX AWOS SHIT?
