Thanks Vince, you answered my question. My plan was to run belchertown in a separate "reporting" instance with database bindings to the aqi and davis weather station databases (fed with separate weewx instances). I will have to play with the weewx.conf and skin.conf to see if I can bind certain values to certain database sources.
For MQTT, I want to publish the live values from both stations, so I will probably setup each weewx station to publish to separate topics and bring that in on the reporting weewx instance.
