I do not recommend editing the Seasons skin about.inc and replacing the 
$station.hardware tag with whatever text you chose. At best you are 
papering over the cracks, at worst it will be misleading. The 
$station.hardware tag is taken from the hardware_name property of the 
driver being used by WeeWX. In this case if 'Simulator' is being displayed 
that will be because WeeWX is currently using the simulator driver. Doesn't 
matter how many driver stanzas are included in weewx.conf, or what station 
type is selected in weewx.conf; $station.hardware will display the 
hardware_name property for the driver used by the WeeWX instance doing the 
reporting.

After you changed to the interceptor driver did you restart WeeWX? If not 
you need to. If you did what does the WeeWX log say? Details of the driver 
being used by WeeWX is logged during WeeWX startup. Certainly the nonsense 
values you are seeing, such as 0.1C, is indicative of WeeWX using the 
simulator driver rather than the interceptor. The answers will be in the 
log.
