+"wxTcall" is the callsign used for APRS packets including a weather report (when DHT22 is used).
+So you can change the SSID and make it easier to differentiate between normal and wahter packets. + +"sTable" should contain the value for the primary or secondary symbol table
+"sSymbol" contains finally the symbol to be sent with the position report + +"wxTable" should contain the value for the primary or secondary symbol table used for weather reports
+"wxSymbol" contains finally the symbol to be sent with the weather report + +"nextTX" is the transmit intervall in ms (milli seconds) - don't use to short intervalls as it overloads the APRS servers
+60000L is a could starting point and means a intervall of 60secs or 1 minute. + +Usage of the defines:
+#define SEND_WX false => no weather reports are sent
+#define SEND_WX true => weather reports are sent, but needs a connected DHT22 + +#define FIXED_POSITION false
+// set to true if you want to use fixed position (position defined below) instead, or to false if you want to use GPS data
+// also stops sending normal position reports when sending weather reports is active (SEND_WX true) + +the following lines are used to define the fixed position
+#define LATITUDE "4813.62N" // please in APRS notation DDMM.mmN or DDMM.mmS used for FIXED_POSITION
+#define LONGITUDE "01539.85E" +
