After upgrading from an Acruite 5n1 to an Atlas, I had reluctantly parted ways with weewx. The Atlas console does not have a usb port, and I did not realize there were other ways to get data from an Atlas.
Moving forward, I recently learned of SDR. I had a moment of opportunity yesterday and put all the pieces together. It works! I followed the steps Matt wrote here: https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-sdr However, my initial attempt was met with silence... nothing but crickets on the 433MHz spectrum. That's when I noticed the code required to decode packets from the Atlas is not in the master branch of the rtl_433 project. It's in a branch called feat-atlas. After switching to the feat-atlas branch and building from that, rtl-433 came alive and started picking up data from the Atlas. Looking at the source code, it does not appear lightning detection is included. I will confirm later this spring, after the first thunder storm rolls in, and I can get some raw data to look at. I'll certainly provide that data to move the project along if it is needed. Thanks Matt and Tom for your hard work on this project. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
