Hi Gary, thank you for your reply. It's very interesting what you wrote. It looks like I will have to wait for your driver or firmware to be updated.
Before, I used the weewx-interceptor <https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-interceptor>. Today I discovered that the problem came after changing the driver. Before the driver change, the following CWOP frames registered in the APRS system: 2022-05-21 20:41:02.12 -- /007g017t053r000p021P021b10136h82L000.weewx-4.8.0-Interceptor 2022-05-21 20:46:07.838 -- /008g016t053r000p021P021b10137h82L000.weewx-4.8.0-Interceptor 2022-05-21 20:51:12.485 -- /008g016t053r000p021P021b10136h82L000.weewx-4.8.0-Interceptor 2022-05-21 20:56:17.218 -- /007g016t053r000p021P021b10136h82L000.weewx-4.8.0-Interceptor 2022-05-21 21:00:21.347 -- /007g015t053r000 p021P021b10135h82L000.weewx-4.8.0-Interceptor Subsequent frames, after changing the driver, already have an error (r039): 2022-05-21 21:20:22.214 -- /006g009t052r039p021P021b10135h83.weewx-4.8.0-GW1000 2022-05-21 21:25:23.025 -- /008g015t052r039p021P021b10135h83.weewx-4.8.0-GW1000 2022-05-21 21:30:21.938 -- /008g016t052r039p021P021b10135h83.weewx-4.8.0-GW1000 2022-05-21 21:35:27.426 -- /008g016t052r039p021P021b10136h83.weewx-4.8.0-GW1000 2022-05-21 21:40:16.266 -- /009g015t052r039 p021P021b10135h83.weewx-4.8.0-GW1000 Hope this helps in possibly eliminating the problem.
