I got tired of wondering why it didn't work and I wired one of my nodes (used in room anyway) to weather station. Same scheme - DATA (pin2), GND-GND.
It works even better than on the receiver module (as it now gets a lot more readings).
It's getting readings ATM and will do overnight, but before that I saw same-readings with different CRC (only once happened so far):
001110100101011000111001001000010 100100110 - Battery=1 Channel=1 Temperature=35.6F Humidity=88%
0011101001010110001110010010000101 00000100 - Battery=1 Channel=1 Temperature=35.6F Humidity=88%
You can see the station and the receiver itself in left top corner here:
