Fixing broken kiwirecorder installation [fixed now]
I have previously easily installed and run kiwirecorder on a Pi-3b running Stretch. However today my installation attempt results in what appear to be python errors, but only when it is run with '--dt-sec=120':
pi@raspberrypi:~/wsprdaemon/kiwiclient $ python -u /home/pi/wsprdaemon/kiwiclient/kiwirecorder.py --freq=14095.6 --server-host=192.168.1.17 --server-port=8273 --user=wsprdaemon_v2.5a --password=foobar --agc-gain=60 --quiet --no_compression --modulation=usb --lp-cutoff=1340 --hp-cutoff=1660 --dt-sec=120
2019-10-29 17:30:01,202 pid 5713 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tm_hour'
2019-10-29 17:30:01,203 pid 5713 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'tm_hour'
.....
I'm not really literate in Python, but it appears the 'time' package doesn't include the 'tm_hour' field. This suggests some kind of incompatibility between the running version of Python and its time library.
Removing and reinstalling python-numpy did not fix it, and I hesitate to try to reinstall python on this remote system.
This is my first greenfield installation of the new kwirecorder which includes '--OV', if that has any relevance to the problem.

Comments
I can reproduce the problem. A fix is on its way. There is no need to reinstall python.
Apologies for this..
