Has anyone used the Tampa Florida TMY2 weather file?? ?I am getting error mesaages trying to run with that weather. I try other weathers with the same file, and they are successful.
?
BTW, how can I get the TMY3 BIN files to run, manually downloading them and setting them up ??

John,

Try this:
In eQUEST, select Tools -> View File Locations -> View eQUEST Data
Directory to determine where your Weather folder is. Create a "TMY3"
folder within the Weather folder and put the TMY3 bin files (from
http://doe2.com/Download/Weather/TMY3/) in it. Go to Project Properties
and enter "TMY3\WEATHERFILENAME.bin" in the Weather File field, using
the appropriate weather file name.

Maybe the Tampa weather file got hit by lighting. I saw some gorgeous
T-storms when I lived/worked there.

Good luck,
Bill
