Steve,
Does MX use the same formula to calculate wind run?
2 identical consoles, one transmiter, so they both get the same data.
Cumulus 1.94 (1096) Windows 7
MX (b3019) Ubuntu Linux
Totals from today and yesterday are different by about 30 miles or so.
today: (1.94 ) 17.6 mi MX 34.9 miles
yest: (1.94) 76.4 mi MX 105.1
Both programs have a multiplier of 1.25 in their settings,
read that somewhere in the forums to compensate for a little shorter standard mast.

Re: Wind run calculation
They shouldn't differ by that much if they're getting the same data. Do you have them both running 24/7, or does one or both of them use logger data at any time?
