Unless the SD shows are actually using SkyTracker disguised as Titan; not sure if that's the case.

This morning during First Outlook, Cheryl asked for SkyX (I forget the number, it might have been Sky2). I also saw a few cities on the radar still using the Interstate font, and not Helvetica, like they might have manually updated the fonts on all the main cities and forgot a few.

Edit: Forgot to mention: On First Outlook during the 6:50 AM ET Tropical Update, they were still obviously using WPS for an infrared satellite view, complete with old titlebars.

I agree with you on all of that. :P

HOLY ****.

PM Edition's package is AWESOME.  I wonder how much of A&B's package is radically changed.

Oh my gosh, A&B's colors have changed from orange to blue, and they're broadcasting from the big desk for two weeks!

I think they should keep A & B's studio. Considering it would be a waste to change it because it's not even 2 years old yet.  :blink:

It's way too small for HD. It'll make for a good office, I'm sure. The future is next door in the HD building.

A&B's set was actually in the Weekend View set (which has been in place since 2005), it was interchangeable with the WV set.

And besides, even if they kept the A&B set, it would clash in horribly with in the current graphic set. :no: And as Spring Rubber said, it's way too small for high definition.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It is quite small. I wonder if they'll all broadcast from the same desk in the HD studio just with a different background.  :)

Just now on A&B they showed the Thunderstorm Forecast map, and the edges of the map were cut off, along with half of the titlebar. Screen coming shortly (didn't feel like booting the tuner).

I noticed that. I wonder if that was the HD-version of the T'storm Forecast map.

in the interactive tour - i could have sworn I saw another anchor desk to the right of the main desk area - but on the tour it said work area (or something similar).

or something. but it looks as though it could be used for another broadcasting desk.

It certainly looked like it.
