[weewx-user] Re: bad Accurate rain data

2017-02-28 Thread Craig Thom
I'm getting the same issue, and, since the display is not showing the 
phantom rain spike, I assume it's in the USB communication.  I've ordered a 
shorter USB cable with ferrite cores, but, in the mean time, since I'm 
using US measurements, I added

...
   rain = 0, 0.4, inch

Is that correct, or should I use mm to avoid a decimal value?

weewx did not give an error when I ran it, as it did when I got the syntax 
wrong.

no problem.

most issues should be posted to weewx-user

if you are writing code or want to discuss architectural issues then post 
to weewx-development

Thank you. Bad on me for not searching the posting archive.

I also like to adhere to good process. If I'm not sure if something should 
be posted here or the development group or both, what's the right thing to 
do ?
