On Tue, Oct 16, 2012 at 05:11:10PM +1100, we recorded a bogon-computron collision of the <edodd at billiau.net> flavor, containing:

Bug, obviously, but we'll have to figure out which code it's in.  One of the 
APRS formats for weather does put the wind course/speed in exactly the same 
place that the station course/speed would be, and others put that data
in a more distinct place.  So figuring out why your station is appearing
this way will require a lot more information than just your callsign and
your symbol type (as Lynn asked for).

What weather station are you using?

How are you getting your data into Xastir?

When you view "Own Weather Data" under the View menu, what station type
is displayed at the top?
