excellent!  as you discovered, there are two approaches: either get more 
data samples, or adjust the 'line_gap_fraction' to connect the dots (as 
explained in the weewx user 
guide: http://weewx.com/docs/usersguide.htm#dots_in_plots)

i am not familiar with the internals of belchertown skin, but i think that 
'gapsize' is the parameter that the belchertown skin uses for a similar 
purpose to line_gap_fraction.

as for record_generation, when using the SDR driver you want 'software'.  
but it won't matter.  the SDR driver cannot do hardware-based record 
generation (that only works if there is a hardware data logger), so it 
tells this to weewx when it is loaded.  so weewx uses 
record_generation=software, even if 'hardware' is specified in the config 
file.  you should see this in the log file during startup.
