Interesting that while it is reporting a value for wind direction and solar radiation, Ekos (and PyINDI) are reporting zeros. Plus, mostly I really need humidity to monitor dew point, and that's also zero, and "not* showing up in the log. And one more little data point, in the Ekos Main Control tab, for "Status", only temperature, wind, and rain are shown with their status lights. For what that's worth...

Thank you!
