>From the logs the wind direction appears to be being uploaded when it is
available. I know the wmr300 produces partial packets which do not always
seem to work well with rapid fire at WU. I also see that you are giving
rapid fire updates at 1 second (or even less) intervals - yet the upload
says the interval is 2.5 seconds - this could be causing issues at the WU
end, and resulting in lost data (just a theory, since it does not take much
for WU to lose/drop data).
Does it work OK if you turn rapid fire off and go to a 5 minute archive
interval??
I'll leave this to Matthew as he knows FAR FAR more than me!!
