I just rebuilt a WeeWX system, running 4.1.1 and I'm facing an odd issue
where I find that archiving is NOT happening when I use the SDR driver.
If I use the Simulator, archiving works at the testing interval of 30
seconds as planned. While using the SDR driver, it is able to parse the
RTL_433 packets just fine in loop mode, but archive never happens.
Grepped out the sdr packets as they are super noisy:

Any ideas of why this isn't working with SDR?
