Wind Speed Not Accurate

Hi,

I have upgraded my weather station and Cumulus software, station has changed from a WH1081 to a W8086 Solar and Cumulus from 1.9.2 to 1.9.3

Operating system is Win 7 64 bit fully updated
CPU is Core 2 6600 @ 2.4GHz
Ram is 8 GB

I note that Cumulus displays wind speed as faster than the base station displays, currently Cumulus reports wind speed as 10.7 mph while the base station displays 6.0 mph.
I have monitored this over the past couple of days and the base station never displays the wind speed displayed by Cumulus.

In Cumulus all offsets are 0 and all multipliers are 1

All other displays in Cumulus match what the base station displays

Easy Weather Plus when it starts, shows a slight difference in wind speed and direction compared to the base station however, after 30 seconds or so both the base station and Easy Weather Plus match.

Appreciate any help on this

David.
