Station Loggers - Cautionary

Post by beteljuice »

A cautionary tale ......

The beteljuice has a La Crosse WS2300, and has told Cumulus to use the station 'log' to update on start-up.

Having installed the latest build, it was 'Please Wait ...' for approx. 40s, then 'Downloading ...' for about another 40s with all sorts of figures changing in the background.

Then, nonsense month / year figures, looked in the data folder and figures for the rest of the month existed and a feb09log.txt !!

Sometime during the early hours the radio time sync had screwed and changed my station date to 2nd Feb.

Many sweary words and file editing later, and waiting for the station log to 'flush', everything seems to be correct. :roll:
