CWOP connected but doesn't show weather data
« on: January 18, 2016, 11:37:11 AM »
I use Cumulus to transmit weather data to various sites.  It works fine sending weather data to Wunderground and PWS, but does not send it to CWOP. 

My CWOP settings on Cumulus are:

Enable
ID: EW0161
Pass:  16827
Server:  cwop.aprs.net
Port:  14580
Interval:  1 min.

On my CWOP web page (http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/E0161?lang=en) it states:  "APRS Status:  Your data is flowing into findu.com, but no weather data is being received from findu.com."

Any suggestions?

IIRC, when I singed up for CWOP, they said the update freq. should be 5 minutes at most. No idea whether this still applies and no idea if that helps. :-|

Neither 1097 nor -1 resulted in any change.

I thought we all had unique passwords.

I got 16827 from a password list.

No the findu knows where the data comes from.

Your packets are listed as bad:

http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/errors.cgi?last=24

presumably because you haven't set your co-ordinates in Cumulus.

My weather data is being reported on THIS site: 
http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/wxpage.cgi?call=EW0161

But not on THIS site (but it does show a connecdtion): 
http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/E0161?lang=en

Why the difference besides the "W" in the call number?

I now have my coordinates entered into the Cumulus Station Configuration Window.

I have my ham password in the "Pass" field instead of the -1.

Who would of thought? Coordinates not set.  ](*,)

gfmucci, if you read under Data Status it says 12 hours after end of UTC before any data shows but my experience it will be several days before madis QC starts working. Check back in a few days.

Does this.  ](*,) mean I have my CWOP set up right now?

I don't know for sure. I'm not guessing if basic Cumulus configuration is set up correctly or not.

Well, I'll use some logic and answer my own question.  If my data is being reported on this site:  http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/wxpage.cgi?call=EW0161

...and you say it takes "12 hours after end of UTC before any data shows but my experience it will be several days before madis QC starts working. Check back in a few days" for it to show up on this site:   http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/E0161?lang=en

...then it appears I set things up correctly, not using the Pass of -1 but using my ham Pass code.  Bravo!  And thank you.

UPDATE:  I just noticed that my data is flowing to APRS as reported here: http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/E0161?lang=en

This is the new message: 

"APRS Status:
No data has been seen recently from MADIS, but data is flowing into findu.com (from APRS). Your station may not be included in the region covered by MADIS."

What is the significance of my data not flowing to MADIS?

gfmucci you still have something wrong with coordinates. Your station is being reported as in Italy Position of EW0161 --- 139.0 miles southeast of BARGA or 8316 miles away from registered site. You need to double check the coordinates looks like longitude is set at E instead of W.

In Cumulus station setup, should have these numbers.
 
Latitude: 28° 52' 29" N
Longitude: 81° 57' 43" W
