[wxqc] MADIS Now feeding weatherundergound?

[Burson Dustin]

Has anyone noticed a change in the pressure from APRS/CWOP to weatherunderground.
  If you view my live data to Weatherunderground - KKSNEWTO2, and then view the APRSWXNET data MAS619, there is a 2mb difference., also, I wonder how much time delay weatherunderground has for the APRSWXNET data they are recieving...??

  I'm pretty sure that's how the APRS data is handled. My station's data
has whole numbers when sent to APRS and tenths for temperature, when
sent to weatherunderground.

The weatherunderground version of the APRS data for my station
apparently is just a stub. I think that is a good thing. I wonder how
duplicate stations are detected since station ids are different.
Perhaps latitude/longitude/elevation....
