wxnow.txt in metric values instead of imperial.

Post by xe1gbs »

Hi, even though I have all the configuration measurements in metric units, the wxnow.txt file is generated in imperial units. I'm lost, what can I do? I need the output of the wxnow.txt file to be metric :bash: :bash: :bash:

Does the APRS protocol define metric units?

The only reference document I can find only defines imperial - apart from pressure which is mb/hPa
