Thanks a lot for the information. Few days ago I made the changes in the 
skin.conf as Gary suggested, but first there was no change in the displayed 
value of weewx visible, although I restarted the weewx process. After a 
while the pressure is displayed correct now. In addition I adjusted the 
absolute pressure in the station accordung to the present values of a 
nearby weatherstation at the airport. So everything works fine.
Thank you also very much for your support.
