Issue with All Time Records

When I started using CMX back in 2022 during the first few days I had an issue where when loading missing data from the Ecowitt cloud the settings were wrong and it loaded several hours of data with Fahrenheit temperatures rather than Celcius and this has given me huge errors for all time records. Now I knocked up a PHP script to fix the May 2022 log file entries so now they are correct but I need to correct the all time records, basically all the log files need scanning to now pick up the correct values. Is there a simple way for CMX to do this or even a utility program to achieve it?
Subsequently to doing this before I can permanently move to CMX I need to merge my Weather Display all time records into the CMX ones. Has anyone done this?

OK so I found that editing the records can get the logs loaded to select from which as I only have 2 years of logs did not take long. What it did show up was that I had wind spikes in April 2022 so I edited the log files to recover the probable data (either from WD or I guessed as they were so extreme) and re-ran so I now have reasonable records.
Looks like the most recent f/w updates to my WS80 has sorted these spikes as I've not seen any since April 2022.
So I'm left with being able to bring forward to CMX the records from WD which has to be done before I can switch permanently so that any all time record displays show all records from 2005 when I started with WD. What is the easiest way to achieve that?

There is no quick way that I know of I'm afraid. It would be slogging through the records editors and comparing them. I guess you can weed out any WD records set since you started using MX.

I think I'll look at the WD log files and see if I can build CMX log files from them, the problem is that not all the data is in one WD log file and some items are not even recorded I think. I feel some PHP code coming on! Likely to take some time me thinks
