Hello all, After moving it to a new location, I'm in the process of setting up my weather station, and am running into an old problem. I have the new AAG anemometer/wind vane head (WS603). I cannot get the wind vane direction to calibrate properly. I secure the vane pointing north, go through the software steps, and the display gives me a direction like 113 degrees, instead of zero. Calibrate again, it's 257 degrees. With enough repetitions, through sheer statistics, I will get a value close to zero, but it can take a number of tries. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm up to date on the software. Once the vane has been set to zero at a certain point, it will reliably indicate zero at that point, so I think the sensors in the head are working, it just seems like the calibration isn't working. Thanks for your help. Ted K5KZ
