WS-2310 wind sensor issues

The wind sensor that came with my WS-2310 reports 57.0 mph when the wind speed is 0mph & the direction passes through 0 deg (due North).

although usualy only for when you use direct cable connection to the base unit,
you need to replace the data cable between the temp/hum sensor and the aneometer with sheilded twisted pair cable
to avoid data spikes like that (from interference)

This thread has some good info:

It is a common problem.
