Thank you, the chart is fixed. I am still waiting for radio interference to occur on the solar sensors so that I can be sure that it is recorded.
I can understand the preference for NULL when there is no data and I agree it is a better approach. I'd just like to be reassured that when sporadic data is received, it is correctly recorded and passed on to my databases. I'm still unsure of what will happen with the data feed to Wunderground. At the moment, the graphs there are not displayed, presumably because there are no values in the CumulusMX output. I've seen radio interference today causing a station stoppage but no solar readings. If it follows previous patterns there will be solar signals on Tuesday or Wednesday so we'll see what happens.

Re: 4063 - Solar chart missing
I have improved the null handling for all data values in the next build for the MX generated graph data files.
I think discontinuous data should have a discontinuous plot on graphs. Zero is a valid value for Solar Rad and does not accurately represent the absence of data.
Is it just me though? Plotting something other than solar data on the WU solar chart is a bit odd. It's publically viewable and does not represent solar data from your site at all, which is what people will be expecting from it.
