Hi,

I’m sorry to hear you troubles, and I’m keen to hear more.  Could you send me some pics of your valve bases please?  (Let’s not have them on the list!)

Yes, the declination code is in Radbot and designed to run weekly.  Due to a bug it actually runs slightly more often than intended.  We fixed that bug in the current release candidate code.
