HI
Ive got a Very old WeeWx install of 3.9 I think, and one day it just
stopped receiving my SDR data.
Ive tried to fix it but Im feel like Im running in circles. I cant seem to
get the Deamon to stop running the Weewx even through sigkill, /etc/init.d/
stop, to systemctl stop functions.
I just looked at my system log and its being flooded by this repeating
pattern

I have a Rasp Pi 3, with PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="9"
VERSION="9 (stretch)"
I have an SDR running, with Belchertown Skin.
It was built years ago, and had been running fine. I had a long time ago
issues with getting the deamon running, but had fixed it, I think with the
weewx script, but nothing in my Cron tab about starting it, so I must have
made a very agressive restart in the script.
My systemctl status is:

Id post more of the syslog but its just thousands to repeating "zambretti
forecast: False" errors
Im happy to post any logs.
Weewx is installed in /etc/weewx/
I haven't made any modifications to the .conf file other than edits to the
packet names to see if I can get it to find the devices again. For a short
time last week it was running but only picking up my 1 sensor - so I
adjusted that.
I did reinstall RTL_433 and RTL_SDR -
If I try to Run the SDR directly, I do get an error:
PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/weewx python /usr/share/weewx/user/sdr.py
--cmd="rtl_433 -M utc -F json -f 915000000"
err:rtl_433 version -129-NOTFOUND branch master at 202410011102 inputs file
rtl_tcp RTL-SDR
then it tells me there is a USB claim error, which if I unplug and replug
at the right time I can get it to work.. but weewx is running in the
background.
