Hello. I would like to use your weewx extension for APRS. I would like to understand a few things about it.

a) I used to config weewx database with UsUnits. Weewx allowed me to convert data to Metric when the web page is build but I recently changed the database settings to Metric. So Is it really necessary to convert units?. Can I change the code from:

        data['windSpeed'] = convert(v, 'windSpeed', 'group_speed', pu, 'mile_per_hour')
        v = nullproof('windGust', packet)

to:

        data['windSpeed'] = v
        v = nullproof('windGust', packet)

b) If I choose to make a double convertion. I guess I should change some lines in code from:

        # obtain the unit system used by the packet
        pu = packet.get('usUnits')

To:

        # obtain the unit system used by the packet
        pu = packet.get('Metric')

        data['windSpeed'] = convert(v, 'windSpeed', 'group_speed', pu, 'km_per_hour')
        v = nullproof('windGust', packet)

and change all other measurements.
Thank you very much.

Trying to wget the following URL fails : https://github.com/gjr80/weewx-aprx/releases/download/v0.2.0/aprx-0.2.0.tar.gz

APRS packets are in UTC time, not local.
Line 425 can be changed to use gmtime as opposed localtime to resolve.

Once this is changed the packets are no longer tagged as "[Delayed or out-of-order packet (timestamp)]"

If possible can yiu add Luminosity value to the aprs packet
