Re: CumulusMX v4 updating

So last night I tried upgrading to build 4022 with no luck with it running.

I had to revert back to build 3283 that is still working good.

Cumulus MX is on a Libre Computer with a Raspberry Pi OS

Any advice? Thanks in advance.

Snow Observation Recording

I would like to recommend a feature the would support inputting and viewing snow observations. As a CWOP Snow Observer I input my snow observations manually. I would like to see a similiar option to input data into Cumulux MX that can be recorded and viewed or displayed ( https://madis-data.ncep.no...

Ambient WS-2902 Forcast

While running Cumulus MX I select the Cumulus ( Zambretti ) forecast as the forecast source.

I notice that my Ambient WS-2902D has a forecast on the display.

Will this forcast feed to Cumulus MX. If it does, it does seem to work!

Thanks

Re: Request Change to have wxnow.txt publish with UTC/GMT time

It works fine if the.machine.running Cumulus is set to UTC time If I set it to local time, CDT, the APRS software timestamps the date and time in the wxnow.txt as Zulu time regardless. In my case a.six hour difference.

Request Change to have wxnow.txt publish with UTC/GMT time

Currently my computer running Cumulus MX is running on UTC time. My APRS program, APRSIS32, takes the date from the wxnow.txt and puts it out as UTC time without considering the timezone it was published in.
