if you look at my data going to findu, it's now reporting much more

Ok. Wind speed as transmitted on APRS is supposed to be:
"sustained one-minute wind speed (in mph)". Gust is supposed to be:
"peak wind speed in the last 5 minutes". Page 64 of the APRS spec.
I saw nothing in the addendums to change these.
Now... Some weather stations don't give us any gust or peak value,
others give it or the wind speed to us with a different time period.
What would be the correct thing to do?
You have different start up files for various TNCs, couldn't you do the
same thing for WX stations?
