Exiting.
I am not sure but I may have different bme280wx.py than yours.
I used this link (https://gitlab.com/wjcarpenter/bme280wx) during the
installation for this driver and it worked fine with weewx 3.92 but when
(https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433) made alot of changes for Acurite
devices and no one seem to be looking after
(https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-sdr) (sdr.py) and weewx got updated
further thats where things got lost and we are struggling with these
problems.
I truly appreciate your help
