You've posted in the 'home built' section. What is the hardware setup that you're seeing this with? Not your WEA22?

I've moved the thread to the Fine Offset section.

'Spikes' like that are common with Fine Offset stations. Cumulus has 'spike removal' settings (on the calibration screen) so that you can get it to filter them out in future. Read the help to make sure you understand how to use the settings.

You can correct your all-time record using the editor in Cumulus. If you don't know what the previous (correct) record was, look at the end of the alltimelog.txt file; the description of the format of that file is in the wiki.
