Hello

I've noticed my Barometer reading is different from other local sources: 
the airfield just up the road from me, the local weather report, my phone 
weather app - you name it, my readings did not agree. WeeWx was reporting 
too high.

I'm using an Aercus IP weather station and WeeWx is using the Interceptor 
driver.
The weather station itself has its own calibration settings page, it has 
two fields for calibrating pressure:

Absolute Pressure (was, and is, set to 0)
Relative Pressure (was set to 30.00hpa which I'm sure was arbitrary, now 
set to 0)

If I change the Relative Pressure offset the Barometer value reported on 
the resulting WeeWx-generated webpage changes, so I'm confident that 
Relative Pressure is what's sent to WeeWx.

My question is what to do - calculate and set the calibration in hardware, 
or in WeeWx? What is generally preferred or considered the best option?

Thanks!
