It is not the software. This is a well known problem with the Lacrosse
hardware . At one time I also had a Lacrosse and had to replace the
cheap parallel conductor with twisted pairs. The problem disappeared
once that was done.
(see: http://www.lavrsen.dk/sources/weather/windmod.htm)

As for why it occurs when connected, perhaps it is related to grounding
at one end of a long wire. I never investigated further since the
twisted pairs fixed the problem.

I have a WS-2317 and have had wind spikes problems for quite a while.
It seems recently I have been having alot of them.
