When selecting a location for that has both TMY2 and TMY3 Weather files
which does eQuest use?

I believe it is always TMY2, but you can confirm the WF used in the
analysis in DD mode by double clicking on the Project Icon at the top of
the component tree in any screen and you will get this window.

The "Weather File" referenced for is the //WFtypefolder\WF_name.bin that
will be used for the analysis. Here, WFtypefolder is the "TMY2" folder
that should be in the eQUEST Data -> Weather directory, and the WF_name
is "SEATTLWA.bin".
