I have been trying out weatherradio which is a very nice weather station.

Thank you very much Wolfgang

I have a question regarding the cron scripts outlined in the documentation.

It seems that the first set of calls to we_rrd_fetch.py -s [6h|1d|7d|30] are repeated in the second batch which declares the -o file and the sensors.rrd files.

These are already defined and included from wr_config.py

Can't the last block be deleted?

Am I misunderstanding something, or is this a typo?
