[weewx-user] "First Light", working, but with some problems

After writing a new driver for my station and configuring weewx to support its data stream I was able to run weewx live for a few minutes, then shut it down to check SYSLOG (debug=2). There appears to be two problems (see attached syslog excerpt): a) The database and reports are updating on

Re: [weewx-user] WUnderground test

The data logger is a broadcast type, meaning it outputs the current data every 60 seconds (ie, it is not polled by the driver). If the weewx driver fails to get one or more of these data then the data base is not accurate and hence any daily totals will be wrong. For me, the most important

I am currently sending reports to WU using a different application. But I am now switching over to weewx and need to verify that the request being sent to WU is correct without actually sending it. I don't want to send a barometric pressure of 200 and throw off the WU ;historical graphs.
