RE: [DG11]Windspeed values incorrect, too low, after some time, especially with more wind
We solved the problem late last week by purchasing a new ITC-5 to replace the wind pod and we now have normal windspeed on our displays. However I'm not sure the wind pod replacement actually explains our success. During the replacement process I realized that the mast head wire connection - especially for the ground - was not as tight as one would like. I used a pliers to squeeze together the spade connector resulting in a tighter connector. I think this makes sense because each year when the mast is taken down the yard has to disconnect the system from the wind pad (now the ITC-5) and I suspect after 5 or 6 years the spade connectors had become slightly distorted.
