[arm-allstar] Wunderground API

All, 

Please note Wunderground has discontinued the API and unless you pay big
bucks, you can no longer download you current weather info.

I have a Davis Weather Station, and upload to Weather Link.  Davis has a
free API which I am now using.  This required some simple changes to my wx
script due to the field names in the xml not matching WU names.

It is now working and my repeater spits out latest Wx one hourly IDs.

Anyone interested in my scripts, send me an email.

I have autopatch set up (via VoIP link to telco service provider) and if I
initiate a call from the Asterisk command line (i.e. 'rpt fun 50xxx
*618004321000') the call completes normally, however if I enter the same
sequence from the radio side I can see each digit being decoded properly but
the call does not initiate, in fact the digits seem to be ignored entirely.
I am not exceeding the max allowed interdigit timing and not sure why the
radio-side attempt is being ignored. Is there a digit termination character
that must be entered or something simple that I am missing?

Thanks

Nevermind, found the problem, bad DTMF encoder on the radio being used for
the test. Asterisk was not decoding a single digit in the dial string and I
didn't catch it. Other radios work fine.

I previously had temperature and weather conditions reporting each hour by
making the change to my cron- .  I just added the API for my weather station
on Weather Underground to the two files mentioned and now only getting
temperature.  Obviously, there are other changes that I?m not aware of that
calls up weather station data rather than ZIP code weather information.
Where do I call up my weather station data ?  I assume that people that
previously had Weather Underground working already have these changes in
their files.  What am I missing?

Maurice,

    What you are seeing is correct. There is no weather condition sent from
the weather stations so if you use wunderground in place of zip or airport
code in the hourly you will only get temperature. It has always been that
way. Where you will get a more complete forecast - not for the hourly of
course - is using wx_condition.sh which shows or speaks the data from the
government or underground stations. Just type wx_condition.sh without
parameters to see the options. I am sending out another update notice now so
do an update again before you try it.

There is another update tonight to fix a few problems in the wx_condition.sh
script. This only effects the script not the .ini files so if you entered
keys they will remain.  Do an update with item 1 in the admin menu.

This fixes some minor bugs associated with the prior release to fix the
wunderground updates.

Patrick,

 Sorry for the delay in answering. I discussed this with Dave and he will be
updating the dvswitch GW SW to the latest binaries and restructuring the
files in the next few days. There will probably be something about it by the
weekend.
