Thanks very much for your tip. I'll try that change to the driver. I had
filed a different issue on the Github for HP1000 but didn't get a response.
I found an email address for her recently so I'll try dropping her a note.
Is it considered "expected" that the driver error would take out weewx
itself?
Thanks again!
