Ray - SLOW DOWN a little 1. The log was displayed correctly when you did tail -f /var/log/syslog - so if you keep that window open the log will keep on being put into that window - no need to use gedit to see the log!! When you want to stop viewing the log either just close the window or type CTRL/C to return to the command prompt
2. The log said weewx was having a problem accessing your weather station, and would try again in 60 seconds - but I do not think you waited 60 seconds to see what happened on the retry!!
