I know you have very specific asks but I thought I'd throw out a different architecture since you have grants and I'm assuming you're either an educator or a research.

If you go with a small computer (pi4 or better, or a small x86_64 box) with a SDR dongle, you can run weewx on it with the rtl_davis driver and sniff the RF from the VP2 ISS without a data logger.   Just keep the computer on a UPS so you don't lose any data and you really won't need a logger.   The whole thing would be perhaps $100-150 plus the ISS and some of your time of course. Add an inside breadboard and bme280 sensor if you need inside T+H+P readings.  Works great.

So your architecture would be VP2 ISS (only) => RTLSDR antenna attached to the weewx computer, then weewx computer => whatever site(s) you want to upload to.

For a console anything viewing the weewx generated web pages + images would work.  I use a Kindle Fire 8" running the free FullyKioskBrowser package to have it stay on all the time.

Alternate architecture could be ISS via RTLSDR to weewx to MQTT to Home Assistant, which also works great.

It all really comes down to budget and how turnkey you need your solution to be.

I see a previous post about this issue, but I have the 5.19 version of nws-forecast already.

This just started happening, or at least I didn't notice it previously.

Thanks for any insights on this.

According to this: https://www.weather.gov/idp/forecastmigration

The digitalDWML (XML) and digitalJSON forecast types are listed as "known issues" that occurred when they migrated the forecasting website to a new platform. So, perhaps, those formats will be fixed at some point?? There's NO mention of the API on this page or mention that those features are deprecated.

It's confusing when you couple that information with what I've posted earlier from api.weather.gov.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Other than accuracy, I could not find this information. Maybe there's a FCC document somewhere - I could not find it.

I have passed on your request to Starpath

Twice recently I have had to reboot the Meteobridge PRO (red, but using IP data) after an ISP outage.

The first time I changed out the router and it stopped uploading.

Overnight the ISP was doing some announced work and was out for a few hours. I had to restart Meteobridge to get it going again.

It seems to me that almost all of my other Internet connected devices will self recover when the ISP connection is restored.

Anyone else have this happen? Also, I thought that there was an option to schedule an automatic reboot, but I am not finding it in the menu system.

I had uploads stop unrelated to ISP outages after this.

There were error messages related to the WLIP fed data on port 22222. I decided to reconnect the 900 MHz antenna and it has worked since late morning yesterday. (Uptime: 21 hours, 50 minutes as of now)

No errors in log other than one regarding:
logger (05.05.2024 04:00:39): DB cannot retrieve 'th0dew_all' (100 tries, 9037ms): database is locked (5)
It doesn't seem to affect anything so I guess that I will just ignore it for now. I'm not sure why the console/WLIP connection stopped. if it was a bad IP address, it should not have worked at all..
