WOW Pin

[Patdadly]

I recently had my computer redone and sandaysoft cumulus reinstalled. As it relates to WOW, I included my site ID. However, I'm unable to retreave the Pin. Can anyone help me with the the steps for a successful recovery of the PIN? I need to resume sending observations. Looking forward to your help.

I eventually found my pin number listed after adding a new site with the same ID as my sign up ID.

I couldn't find a way to edit the original sign up site details hence created a duplicate site which generated a unique Site ID and User ID

The pin remained the same.

(Not really a problem as I still had it listed in Cumulus Internet settings but I needed to affirm it on the WOW site.)

Logged on to WOW, Chose "My Sites" option then Edit.

The pin is displayed on the Site Details section headed Authentication Key

This info is also quoted at http://wow.metoffice.gov.uk/support/dataformats#automatic.

Like others, I have found the various field terminology and descriptions to be confusing.
