WS90 Mounting Pole

Please can anyone with a WS90 advise regarding a mounting pole? I’m contemplating purchasing one of these in the hope that it’s better weather sealed than the WS80. I currently have a 30mm inside diameter pole with a WS80 on it, and luckily discovered that the WS90 mounts differently. It seems that ...

Re: GW1100 Dropping out

Paul, I have about given up on this, it’s beyond my ability to solve! You’re having exactly the same thing happening as I get. I’m still wondering if it’s somehow to do with how MX is interacting with the Pi? I had a nightmare few weeks with dropouts as you’re describing, then over the last week or ...

Re: New Record? Post here.

I have just recorded my lowest ever July rainfall in New Milton at 1.2mm. I agree Andy, everything is looking very stressed, trees are shedding leaves and beginning to take on autumn colour. Our acorns are stunted and dropping prematurely and blackberries are very small. I fear for wildlife over the...

Re: Raspberry Pi issue

I'm afraid a reinstall may be the answer after all, it stopped again from 17:49 - 17:53. At least it'll clean everything up, I'll tackle it tomorrow. Thank you for your time, and at least I have a full set of notes to work from now.

Quite how that got enabled is anyones guess, but I disabled it and it’s been running happily for several hours.

Raspberry Pi issue

My apologies as this is probably not the right place to ask for help, but I hope someone can please. I'm having frequent dropouts with CumulusMX which i know isn't a Cumulus problem. I think after a lot of googling it stems from something called avahai daemon which keeps doing this: Jul 27 10:31:20 ...

Re: Will it or won't it..

So sorry, New Milton on the south coast, except I got 33.5 at 15:56🙄, the wind keeps changing direction, goes SW then starts to cool a bit, veers E and promptly warms up again!

Re: Will it or won't it..

My record went at 15:29, at 33.3, it’s not pleasant outside, feel for those of you up in the high 30s.

Re: GW1100 Dropping out

:oops: :oops: my apologies to everyone, hopefully I’ve now learned my lesson, to check before assuming something. Something obviously happened to my router, the GW1100 was blameless. Thanks to Freddie for pointing me in the right direction which is where I should have started in the first place….

Re: GW1100 Dropping out

Thank you very much for helping with the obvious! I need to check the RPi logs, I hadn’t thought of that. I’ve just checked the upload to Ecowitt which looks to be ok. I’ll look at the Pi later to see what that is saying. I could be blaming the GW1100 when it isn’t that at all. I’ll let you know wha...

Re: GW1100 Dropping out

I had another series of dropouts this morning, things have been fine since. Grateful please if anyone can see anything stupid that I'm doing to cause this? Otherwise, I'm not sure what to do next. I can't think that anything is faulty or it would happen more frequently. Thanks very much 2022-06-03 1...
