Title: Weather radio with live voices only
Post by: Eric on August 07, 2012, 12:28:16 PM

I don't know why or what happened, but the Daytona Beach weather radio station is being run only with live voice recordings of all the bulletins and announcements.  No computer voices whatsoever. :blink:

And the meteorologists reading the bulletins (and there are a couple of them) sound completely disinterested. :wacko:

I am listening to radios from the NWS Melbourne and it appears that they have entered into maintenance mode. I heard this happen on all NWS Ruskin stations back in late June when Debby was largely impacting us and products were limited. Then again, in TBW's case, the transmitter crashed due to an overload of warnings getting issued the following day.

It happens around here from time to time when there are technical issues
