This is my first post to the group.  What files do I need to copy to a new PC to keep all my settings and data?

You will want to save
  • weewx.conf
  • The contents of the archive directory
  • The contents of the skin directory.
Where these are located depends on how you did the install. 

For setup.py, they are all located in /home/weewx
For Debian and Redhat, weewx.conf and the skin directory are in /etc/weewx. The archive directory in /var/lib/weewx

Everything else you can just reinstall. Or copy over. Doesn't matter --- beauty of Python.
