Spikes in WMR968 barometer reading

Post by wb2ftx »

I am getting spikes on my barometer reading with the VMR968 and Cumulus 1.9.2. I have not been able to determine if it is occurring just on the VMR968 display or in the Cumulus indication or both. The spikes are short,maybe only for a couple of minutes and are about 40 mb higher than the sea level barometer reading.

Has anyone else experienced this and/or found any answers why or how to fix it.

Are the batteries OK in the baro/thermo/hygro unit?

Steve,

They indicate OK on the Cumulus display. I'll replace them and see if that makes a difference. Thanks

Dave
