When freshly installing weewx, it is not possible to choose a driver UNLESS it 
comes with weewx.  But you need to pick something, so the doc says to pick 
simulator.  Once you install the wmr200 driver, you want to switch to using the 
wmr200 driver and forget about the simulator forever (unless you install weewx 
from scratch again).
