Thanks Gary, looking at that. Tried to keep things as simple as possible at the esp32 end, (which by the way is an amazing piece of kit for $10). So it is sending very raw data - number of clicks from the rain bucket, number of revolutions from the wind cups, for example. The python program then converts this into sensible data. If I need to make any changes in the esp32 it needs to be physically connected to the pc using the Arduino ide, which is a pain. Also wanted to make as few demands on it as possible until I see how stable it is. But so far so good. If it stays stable will try the direct mqtt driver. David
