No longer reporting Wind Direction from rtl_433 for WH1081

[RaSTuS26]

Using a WH1081.

In rtl_433 wind_dir has now become wind_dir_deg, it is not being reported in weewx-sdr which reports None for wind_dir. I need this to display my wind rose properly, is it possible to get wind direction again?

I noticed these lines in sdr.py 0.79 (which I'm using).

Packets I'm using:

class FOWHx080Packet(Packet):
......
        pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'win_dir_deg')

But this doesn't seem to be doing the conversion at all.

For 1080P it's (not using):

class FOWH1080Packet(Packet):
......
        pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'direction_deg')

Is there any chance of confusion between classes?

I'm using the correct packets (FOWHx080Packet), but the conversion isn't happening at all.

EDIT: noticed rtl_433 is reporting this as an integer, yet the packet conversion of sdr.py is expecting a float.

Found it, a simple typo. Tries to convert "win_dir_deg" rather than "wind_dir_deg".

So this line:

pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'win_dir_deg')

Should be"

pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'wind_dir_deg')

@andylittle the FOWHx080Packet class has an error.

This line: (missing the 'd' from 'win_dir_deg') pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'win_dir_deg')

So should be: pkt['wind_dir'] = Packet.get_float(obj, 'wind_dir_deg')

Any help greatly appreciated.
