Not much luck. The symlinks sorta worked - but then I was getting errors that showed the RTL was already being used, it was like it was calling it twice. I tried putting the full path in the command line in the SDR section of the weewx.conf. That made weewx produce no errors, but nothing was being collected. Yet, when I set debug in weewx.conf >0 it looked like it was seeing data, but not writing it. Totally confused, at this point. I started from scratch, installed weewx using Python3 and had same results. I had this hardware setup working for 11 months - just burned out my microSD card on the RPi. If only I realized it would be this hard to get things working again.
