Oh, BOY! :S I thought I'd try to answer my own question by going back to "archive_post = False" behavior to see if RF mode stopped or continued. Well RF mode did stop. But confoundedly when I then went back to archive_post = True, RF mode stopped. Upon further inspection, RF mode did resume about 10 minutes later: Apr 10 14:53:24 nixie weewx[371]: wmr300: reading records since 2019-04-10 14:45:00 EDT (1554921900) (last_index=31 latest_index=32736) Apr 10 14:53:24 nixie weewx[371]: manager: Daily summary version is 2.0 Apr 10 14:53:24 nixie weewx[371]: manager: Daily summary version is 2.0 Apr 10 15:03:23 nixie weewx[371]: wmr300: get history complete: count=0 last_index=32735 latest_index=32736 Apr 10 15:03:23 nixie weewx[371]: engine: Starting main packet loop.

Meanwhile, On the Wunderground side the Graph data stopped at the point where I disabled archive_post and didn't resume until 10 minutes later, but at last look was 5 minutes behind. :-( When I look at the WU "Table" data I see: April 10, 2019 TimeTemperatureDew PointHumidityWindSpeedGustPressurePrecip.
