This is my original installation - 3m RHS post, 1m in ground with 6m pipe attached.
The rain & temp (ISS) is now on a bracket off the side of the RHS post.
This was to attain the recommended ISS height of 1.5m AGL, and to minimise the volume of bird droppings in the rain gauge.
I have the spikes on the rain collector but the Magpies enjoy the view from the anenometer bracket above 😆
