WMRS200: First record always bad checksum

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start wflogger (861)
2. WMRS200-error: bad checksum

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
A normal record?

Instead:

This is just how it works. The first record is often carbage as the weather 
station is already up and running when the USB read starts, so it happens very 
often that first record is not complete. We could ignore it, but other fixes 
are very difficult. 

But it is only one record, so not very meaningfull as we get so many records. I 
do not think it is worth the trouble as weather station usually runs for days.

Thanks for your answer.

I know, its not important. I thought it was any control-message that wfrog 
could not handle, but your theory seems logical.

Thanks for clarification ;)
