InitEtherRain Conversion from string

[Kbevo]

Michael, I just now went out to WUG, logged in and was able to generate a new API key. I do have a paid subscription through March 2020, but that WAS to eliminate the advertising on my WUG page (I believe). In any case, my old key was 16 characters and my new AP key is 32 characters and I believe (but do not know for sure) that it is good for a 5 day forecast. However, it looks like your text box for entering the WUG API Key is 19 characters so I assume you do not support these new keys. Can you give me so insight into what you know about WUG's forecast services and these new keys?

Thanks
Gary

I stand corrected (again ). I just looked at the mcsSprinklers.ini and the full 32 character key is shown there./gary

Oh well, thought I would give it a shot. I decided to give the WU forecast a shot to see what happens. After updating my WU API Key, I selected WU for the forecast and did a download evaluation:

Have you applied for your license from IBM?

I am working on the API updates now. MR_Resistor has volunteered to help with testing.

No, I haven't (yet) found that requirement. Can you share a URL where I can go do that?

Thanks
