Whilst I am happy to document the process to enable the approximation of radiation in the wiki, I am less willing to force calculation of radiation via StdCalculate. Largely because the extension installer is somewhat limited and it uses an all or nothing approach - radiation will be set to calculate for everyone or for no one; the user will have no choice in the matter. The WeeWX wee_config utility is more flexible in that it can be set to prompt the user for input but I believe wee_config's scope is limited the driver stanza only (not the config stanzas for other services in weewx.conf). It may be that we will just have to rely on the user reading some install instructions rather than having them blindly install.
In summary, I will look at what can be done to enable the calculation of radiation on install, but will only implement it if it can be done interactively.
