weewx 4.0.0 on linux
I saw this in my weewx.log file while i had debug enabled:

DEBUG weewx.restx: CWOP: Exception <class 'socket.timeout'> (timed out) when looking for response to tnc packet

Checking an previous log i see its fairly frequent.
I suspect its behind the missing Temperature and Dew Point graph data at CWOP


Any idea whats causing it?
TIA

We've been seeing a lot of that recently. There's a recent weewx-user thread about it.

One user says that he's found cwop2.mesowest.org to be more reliable.

cwop2.mesowest.org  has been used for 24 hours with no losses, the graph looks complete for a change - thanks!

If you know of more issues like this I'd like to compile a list to send to noaa, From my (limited) research this seems to be a problem
when the url species a round-robbin dns. For years they have been blaming users saying they are sending incomplete data and ignoring the problem.
