... well at least I think it is. I’ve had a "cheapo" wh1080 system running for a few years with an RPi and weewx.
I’ve quite a few glitches over the years - lockups and communication dropouts sorted with fresh batteries and/or restarts. Silly readings have been tamed with +/- limits. The latest behaviour is stumping me. Over the past few weeks I’ve been getting rain readings when no rain has fallen. Furthermore, these rain readings are "sensible" in the sense of being within normal rainfall levels around here. For example last week it recorded around 100mm per day for 3 days, which is what continuous heavy rain would produce. Except it hasn’t actually rained for several weeks. I’ve tried the following ... disconnecting the rain sensor (tipping bucket) - it still records rain. moving the remote unit closer (now within 5m of the console) - no difference. changing USB cable (no change). using a powered USB device (no change).
