Cron GW1000 v 6.6

The new cron for the GW1000 appears to actually only be decoding every other packet. I am using it with the 1000, not the new 2000. The raw data in the left most box appears and disappears before one can actually look at the data. The decoded data only decodes about every other raw packet (or so), with only the CRC numbers appearing on the ‘odd’ packets. CRC numbers appear in the right most box even though its not in use.

The every other packet is sufficient to keep the data current, but I am not sure its the desired behavior. The raw data, i should think, should remain visible until the next raw packet is received. The failure to decode is not consistent at every other packet, as sometimes its every third or fourth packet but averages every other packet.

FYI as i say, the decode success rate is sufficient to keep the data in WD current.

i have added support to be able to get rain from the new Wittboy (WS90)
(this new way supports the original rain gauge type and the new piezo rain gauge type, but only with GW1100 or GW2000)

Thanks Brian. Its behavior looks the same.

its working OK here in testing with my GW1000
like it normally does

Well, huh! I changed my Ambient machine over to the Ecowitt and its behavior was the same as my other machine. Like i said, it cosmetic and the data is ok. Just wierd how it flashes by and disappears.
