if you want to see exactly what weewx is uploading, set debug=2 in your 
weewx configuration, then restart weewx.

the 'ignoring stale data' means exactly that.  weewx got some data from the 
console, but the signal strength indicator shows that the console has not 
communicated with the sensors, so the data weewx got from the console 
cannot be trusted, so weewx ignores it.  i'm pretty sure you do not want 
that junk polluting your database.

if you want to track the bogus data, just grep the log file for every 
'stale data' message and save the bytes.

as for skipping uploads, there is not a direct connection between R1 
messages and what gets uploaded.  the uploads you have configured happen on 
each archive interval, and send an archive record.  each R1 message is one 
of many R1 and R2 messages that are aggregated into a single archive record.
