[wxqc] VWSarps servers

[Dr. Lee]

>From my 2 years of experance using Davis, VWS with the APRS addon, and
VPlive the only one that works correctly is VPlive.
I use VWS to feed Wunderground but for APRS packets I use VPlive and my
measurments are ok.  The largest problem with
the other programs is the Barametric Pressure reported.  It can be as much
as 8mm off.  I know the other manufactures
say their programs work but out of all I have tried with a Davis Pro II
wireless is VPlive.

Here is the link to Tim West's VWSAPRS, version 1.9.5:
http://www.meteorologica.co.uk/APRS/VWSaprs.zip
 
"Automatic" will clear the message.

There is a newer version of VWSaprs available - V 1.9.5.0 which you could
try. I have not seen the unreliable server message but ever since I switched
to rotate.aprs.net port 14580 I have huge gaps in my reporting. When I look
at VWS it will be trying random servers and sometimes the only thing to do
is kill it and restart it. Never had that problem when I was using the old
server configuration on port 23.

 

Good Luck

I may have missed an earlier posting on this subject, sorry if I have.

My findu page http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/wxpage.cgi?CW2217 still shows

me,"connected to an unreliable server."

I have VWSaprs version 1.9.4.0 and I have tried to set the sever to both

rotate.aprs.net : port 14580 and

first.aprs.net : port 14580

Each time I get switched to:  arpswest.net : port 23

that has the "connected to an unreliable server" message.

Anything else I should do?

Thanks, Garret
