hayden,
for the wmr200 driver, try setting the archive interval in the driver
config as well as in StdArchive:
[WMR200]
...
archive_interval = 300
[StdArchive]
archive_interval = 300
i'm not familiar with the wmr200 details, but it looks like the driver does
not read the archive interval from the hardware, but instead gets it from
weewx.conf. the driver does impose a constraint that the interval must be
either 60 or 300. you'd have to contact the driver author to find out why.
