OK, which weather port driver are you using inside YAAC? The Serial_Weather port type can only be used with Peet Bros weather stations, and requires exclusive use of the serial port connected to the weather station (i.e., the same serial port can't also be used by WeatherCat or any other application).

If you are using the WXNOW.TXT port driver in YAAC (what you should be using in your case), did you configure the port to the correct location where WeatherCat is storing the WXNOW.TXT file? The orange button on the toolbar indicates an error in the port, possibly due to not being able to find the file. It can also be due to a file access collision where YAAC tries to read the file while WeatherCat is updating it. If that is the cause, update to the latest build of YAAC; I recently put a fix in to deal with file access collisions.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [yaac-users] WX station question

Hi Andrew

I have been using YAAC for several years and it is a great program and really appreciate all fo your work. My system is usually just connected to the internet and no RF. Recently I decided to connect it to my weather station and enabled the WXNOW.txt functionality.

I am using a Davis Vantage with Weathercat software on OSX, I subscribed to CWOP and have a weather station ID of FW6940 and that works fine, if I go to and search for FW6940 I can see the charts etc.

However, if I look for ab2ne-1 I see the wx station symbol but no weather data, when I look at other local stations e.g. KC1AJT-13 in YAAC I see the wind speed arrow and the icons showing rain etc

The port for the WX in YAAC is enabled although the icon is yellow and my wxnow.txt file is:

FW6940>APRS,TCPIP*:@131329z4208.54N/07137.00W_236/004g017t056r000p026P026h92b10152WeatherCatV244B2H31

I did try changing the ID for the wxnow file to AB2NE-1 and that did show some data, but I don't think that was going via YAAC but rather via CWOP.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks
