Hi Geoff,
Thanks very much for the kind words. Having started to help it would have been unfair to you to bail out until you were sorted.
But plenty of people have helped me here so it seemed only right I should help where I could. You struck lucky!
One word of caution. You shouldn't post that email address in a public area as spambots (?) can scan forums for addresses and you might find you get a lot of rubbish emails. I'm not sure how best to have a contact address. Perhaps someone can advise.
PS. Your barometric pressure is still too low. It should be around 998hPa. Some adjustment is required to your Fine Offset station. Again, others may be able to advise.

Hi Geoff,
I found the manual for your station. Have a read of page 10. You need to set it to relative pressure and then adjust the pressure until it is as close as you can get to nearby stations. A Met Office one would be ideal. 998hPa is what you should aim for if you set it in the next hour.

Regarding the email address, you could add it your website as a link (you do need to have some html knowledge to add the code to the web page) which I did, because I wanted the address to be safer from spam and I also hide the address with code as in this thread:
https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=7081. I hope that may be of help to you, if required.
