I've just made a fresh install on Ubuntu jammy and copied my sqlite db

I have set the register_this_station to true in weewx.conf.

To get data from a VP2, all you need is the VP2 hardware!
weewx is fully capable of getting the data from a VP2 without the need of
any additional software or the like.
My offer of a wired VP2 still stands.

I've updated my SteelSeries and rtgd and all working now.
One small thing has changed since my original install is that the scroller

How do I add some text to the scroller now?

Do you have a multimeter that you can use to prove each pin connection on
the serial cable?
If that proves OK, then it can only be the USB/serial adapter or the
