Being the usual pedantic soul that I am ... so Tom's 'not true' which implied my post on archive intervals was not true is also not strictly true. The FTP report timing IS based on the archive timing, but may be DEFERRED to run LESS frequently by setting a report_timing option if so desired. To have FTP reports occurring more frequently than the archive interval it is necessary to change the archive interval - correct? I was assuming that the original poster currently has the default FineOffset interval of 30 minutes rather than the more usual weewx interval of 5 minutes.
