The signal is just different enough to not be picked up by the existing LTV-WR1 decoder. (Though tragically lacrosse_r1_decode incorrectly matches on the LTV-WSDR1 signals, with garbage output.)
The La Crosse View V41CA weather station display shows precipitation on a bar graph with axis labels at halfway and top. At the smallest scale, the labels are 1.27 mm and 2.54 mm for measurements from an LTV-WSDR1. One tip of the bucket causes the raw_rain1 value to increment by one, and the displayed precipitation to increment by 0.25 mm. (The raw_rain2 value takes on the previous sequence number's raw_rain1 value, presumably to afford measuring the instantaneous precipitation rate from a single packet.) The LTV-WSDR1 therefore most likely measures rainfall in units of 0.254 mm, or 0.01 inches. And it is a pretty safe bet that the LTV-WR1 also measures 0.01 inch per bucket tip since it has identical specifications to the LTV-WSDR1 and transmits in the same format, and other rain La Crosse rain gauges in the same product family (LTV-R1, LTV-R3) are also known to measure ~0.01 inch per bucket tip. Change the rain outputs for the LTV-WR1 and LTV-WSDR1 decoder to be scaled to physical units. Make the flags output field conditional so it is only output if any of the flags are set.
