A few comments: 1. Your log is hard to read, because it does not include time stamps, nor does it include entries generated by the operating system. Custom logging also misses the very initial startup until the configuration file is read. Can you use regular syslog logging? 2. Your version of weewx.conf has DEBUG=0, yet we are seeing debug messages. Are you sure you're using the version of weewx.conf you think you are? 3. Again, I'm not an SDR expert, but I don't see any evidence that the driver is emitting LOOP packets. What happens if you run weewxd from the command line? Does it print out LOOP packets?
