After running into major issues with my LTE router in my RV, weewx and Belchertown w/ MQTT are up and running :) Check it out here: https://t.ly/4icFe
My RV router is actually a serious professional LTE router which can provide GPS data, too (once I have a GPs receiver installed). Now, I still have to figure out how to push the GPS data into weewx db and have weewx use it for the weather forecasts using aeris within the Belchertown skin. Since I have MQTT already working and my router can send the GPS data as MQTT packages, maybe that is a way to do so. In weewx.conf the long, latitude and altitude are specified. Is there a way to not update these in the weewx.conf, but have them read from the db and considered accordingly? Thanks for brainstorming this with me ;) TIA, Stefan On Monday, July 31, 2023 at 4:25:05 AM UTC+2 Cameron D wrote: > This would be my suggestion as well.
