[weewx-user] Re: weewx-aprs not reporting wind speed from Acurite 5 in 1 to aprs

1) Wind in the original code is "wind_average" which is not reported by 
Acurite. Change that to "windSpeed"
2) Symbol for wind speed in the original code is "c" and should be "/" 
Change that

When changing weewx-aprs  code (called aprs.py) you have to uninstall the 
extension, change the code and reinstall the extension. When uninstalling 
an extension it wipes out the original downloaded weewx-aprs source so you 
have to rebuild all of this from scratch. 

I made those  changes to the original aprs.py. When the upgrade came along 
a couple weeks ago it unchanged aprs.py back to the original . 

Thanks for those who made suggestions.

[weewx-user] weewx-aprs not reporting wind speed from Acurite 5 in 1 to aprs

2017-12-09 Thread Noel Petit
Running Weewx 3.8.0 with weewx-aprs extension creating aprs.pkt. The packet 
has ... for wind speed. But is reporting wind to weatherunderground and the 
local database creates the correct web page. This happened with the latest 
update of the Raspian operating system. 

Packet

_12091445c027s...g005t014r000h76b10181

No messages on /var/log/syslog indicating any errors. Data is good on 
weather underground and local web page. Did run correctly until last week's 
update. 

Thanks,

2017-11-10 Thread Noel Petit
Did you get it working? i installed the weewx-aprs extension and it 
produces a aprs.pkt in the home directory every few minutes. However that 
packet has an extra _ at the beginning. Check the format of the .pkt and 
see if it is correct. If not, use something like sed to remove the unwanted 
character.
