Title: Don't make sense to me
Post by: Beaudog on September 02, 2012, 01:23:23 PM

I get this nice email from AWEKAS telling me my barometer is off (too low) and does not meet their quality control and that they are disabling my barometer reports.
So I go to the site and check the quality control graphs.   Duh, first they are comparing me to Sierra Vista and Herford (same place really they touch each other).   Both on the west side of the Dragoon Mountains (state divide) in a totally separate valley.
Now look at the graphs:
Sierra Vista has me too low:
 
Hereford has me too high:
 
CWOP gives green with being slightly high:
 

Rant over.

If those 2 charts are generated from Awekas then I'd say that they have a problem. Those are identical except for the colors, you could overlay them and they'd match each other. So Awekas has Sierra Vista and Herford readings recorded  as 'Comp. Value' differently in each of the charts.
