Wind direction should not be blank even wind speed is zero, in realtime.txt file #6

The wind direction in realtime.txt is shown as --- when wind speed is zero. In some circumstances, where wind direction changes due to minute wind speed; but the wind cups may not rotate (due to very minute wind or the wind cup itself has a problem rotating). The realtime.txt should still report wind direction in such circumstances. Thank you

i think this is a weewx issue, not weewx-crt issue. in weewx, when wind speed is zero, wind direction is undefined, thus ---. there is option in weewx configuration to change this behavior.
