Mr Ian Steeple, Thanks for this interesting skin. I have an Ecowitt WS 1200 for field deployment use. During an activation I am interested in BGT and WBGT measures. My data is brought into a WeeWx DB (driver Ecowitt Custom), and then parsed and sent out as an APRS (Ham Radio) packet with two additional fields in the comment for BGT and WBGT.
I have no idea how to perhaps take the data twice once for my APRS stuff and a second time to your skin for display LOCALLY during remote deployment but that would be cool. I am still just learning the vocabulary in your text. So thank you for something else to keep a newly retired network engineer busy.
