Hello,
I have a minor issue with my Vantage Vue working with Weewx.
Weewx is running on a Pi3 and up to date and working well.
I have noticed that periodically at midnight my system shows a drop in received signal by the console.

See attached image
I know this issue is a potential r.f. issue but I don’t get any dropouts any other time. It’s not causing an issue, but just wondered if it is a hardware/software logging issue at midnight?
Has anyone else seen a similar issue?
Regards
Phil

I wouldn't worry too much about it. You'll see that occasionally on probably all systems.

Here's my last 24 hours from a Seagate Dockstar (128 MB Pogoplug so far slower than a pi3).

Look around at any Vantage station --- they all show this.

A long time ago, someone (Luc?) figured out the cause. Something to do with the reception stats getting reset at midnight, but I may not be remembering correctly.
