Wunderfixer will get things right provided that the offset on your computer matches the offset that the WU expects. If those differ, then, yes, it could publish the wrong records, but I don't think that's what's happening here.
I think you're right that analyzing the last column of the downloaded record is a better idea: it would be less sensitive to a mismatch in offsets. However, in this case, you would still get the same results: wunderfixer does not recognize that there is a missing record because, in fact, the WU is providing one. I suppose one way you could work around this problem would be to set your preference units to metric for whatever IP address your server uses. I'm assuming that's how WU figures out what unit system to use. Wunderfixer does not use cookies, so it must be. -tk On Mon, Nov 27, 2017 at 6:11 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > mm, sorry, now I see what you meant: the 07:13 record does show up when I > select US metrics.
