Hi Glenn, The encoding won't have anything to do with the values you are seeing. If you don't use ascii encoding then you will get deg symbol which Aus Weather network won't like.
The values you are seeing are likely to do with the data you have in you system. The report is bog standard. You would see the same if you used $current.barometer in any template. Perhaps you are using multiple database bindings and need to change to use $latest with a data binding?

Add another one to the Aus Weather Network, using your addition. So, a Thank You from here as well! Two things of note. I added the stanza above to the new Standard skin as you'd described for Steve, above. Sometime later I found that the NOAA template menu wasn't being generated for that skin. Backtracking through my additions I found that the culprit was with that addition. (The file WL_stickertags.txt.tmpl was being generated just fine) Adding 2 extra square brackets [[[WL_stickertags]]] to correct the nesting fixed it. No error messages just a silent NOAA menu for that skin (no idea if it would affect other skins?) It's repeatable; take them out, it breaks; add them back in - it works. Magical! Also, I notice that in your Responsive skin config you have 'encoding = strict_ascii' included above it. I wonder if that's why absurd rainfall figures and NaN is showing up at times on the map page - as per the attached image. I reckon it might be the culprit there as my data (at least the batch that was uploaded to AWN over that period) was okay at this end, and it's suspicous that Steve's @ Bacchus was showing the same error. I'm assuming he's missing that encoding override as well. I won't know for sure until I swap it out here, but I won't do the swap until I catch it in the act ( I'd already set it up to log all the WL*'s in the one file, before I came across the above error. I'm going to attempt to nail this sucker when it pops up, or at least try!) The correct format, to add to your skin.conf of choice, follows...

Once I got hold of the WL_stickertags.txt.tmpl all was good. I've signed up and I'm on the map. Thanks again, Steve.

(Does not need oa be a DATA directory but I like to separate out these type of files). Once you have done that you will need to add to your skin.conf. This is found in the same folder as above. Add the lines below, in the [CheetahGenerator][[ToDate]] section. ## Template file for providing data to Australian Weather Network ## Based on template file for Weather Link as per instructions ## at http://www.australiawx.net/instructions.php ## and tamplate file at http://www.australiawx.net/WL_stickertags.txt [[WL_stickertags]] template = DATA/WL_stickertags.txt.tmpl See customising reports - http://www.weewx.com/docs/customizing.htm#customizing_reports for more information. If you are having trouble then you would need to wait for someone to build an installer for this. However it is quite straight forward and if you nut it out the you open up more opportunities with Weewx.

I'm in AU and running WeeWx, exactly what do I need to do to get my data uploaded to australiawx. I'm only running the standard skins with my own basic formatting mods. i.e. http://wotid.dyndns.org/weather/ (Sorry) Regards, Steve.

It needs data is some format. I chose to put together a simple WL_stickertags.txt file in the template. See http://www.australiawx.net/instructions.php and http://www.australiawx.net/WL_stickertags.txt. So anyone using the Skin in Aus, joining http://www.australiawx.net/ is straightforward. Steve the moderator was very prompt and helpful. Get the latest Template files from GitHub - https://github.com/dcapslock/weewx-responsive-skin. The WL_stickertags.txt template may need some tweaks to work in areas Mesonet networks (probably temp units and date format). If you need help let me know and I will tweak (limited time means I only code features used by users). All Aus users, once updated, you can register at http://www.australiawx.net/ with the data URL <site>\DATA\WL_stickertags.txt. Fair winds!
