[wxqc] Raw WX Data Question

[dshelms at comcast.net]

Hi Bob,

The WeatherLink users can chime in, but I think you need to leave the data monitor window open to allow WeatherLink to derive the additional fields since the gust, and 1 and 24 hour precip parameters are since these are are not included in the raw data coming from the console.  Since you are not doing this, your APRS message has the "..." place holders.
