OK guys, thanks for all the help on this. Jerry, I assume that the info below is in the driver for my WS-28xx and if that is the case, where is that driver located?
Next, I want to clarify something... I have used the calculator at http://www.csgnetwork.com/barcorrecthcalc.html to set my altitude (2,320 ft.) and an observed pressure of 30.16 inHg as reported for my area ( https://tinyurl.com/yx65ckcm). This gives me an adjustment of -2.43 so I have set my station pressure to 27.73 inHg. This is now reporting 30.35 inHg barometer reading at Weather Underground (WU). Although this is working, I feel as if it a work-around but maybe it is just a limitation of my station? Thoughts...
