motorola870 -  do you know the id number for your hd star?  or can you let us know what the primary city is on it?

A replacement star had to be sent to them.  They should have it today, so hopefully they get it installed and running soon.

Currently, it appears as though you are a victim of bad luck. KLOR (Fort Rucker) is a military base and it is difficult for getting any information out of them as to whether this is a short or long term issue. I called K79J (Southern Regional Airport) and spoke to the observer. They took a lightning strike last Tuesday and are out for maintenance. Finally, KMAI is out for maintenance too (do not know if this ob is out for the same reason).  Sounds like patience will be in order for you, but you should eventually be back to normal in time.

Thanks to all for the heads up :D. We have determined that the time period is incorrect on the Tab (if Local Forecast locations on the ticker say Sunday, the 2nd set, which tend to be a little farther from the h/e say Saturday, however, the forecast is for the correct time period-Sunday). A ticket has been written for a fix. Be patient, in time this will be resolved. Thanks!

Did a reboot on Topeka and Spokane Wxscan units. See if this helps.

As much as we appreciate your feedback and make any corrections to possibly any errors there are in the field (and yes, we do appreciate your feedback especially for incorrect information we are displaying), our team strives to bring data for the area served (in your case Boonsboro and Smithsburg) and not what individuals see as important to their needs. Thus, most of your requests are null because they fall out of the area served. Frederick and Martinsburg are already on the Metro Maps. That being said, your Knoxville point is well taken. Since "Knoxville" is unicorporated, it will be replaced with Harpers Ferry. Additionally, I took out a town or two to allow for easier viewing of precipitation echoes.

Below is your request from 6/15/2011 and my response then.

 #23238 Request
« on: June 15, 2011, 04:24:32 AM »Quote STAR Team,

I have a few requests for STAR ID 23238.  Would it be possible to change a few cities on the 8 city obs page making it:

Antietam (if that doesn’t work then Clear Spring or Brunswick)
Boonsboro
Chambersburg
Frederick
Hancock
Martinsburg
Taneytown
Williamsport

I know the STAR doesn’t serve a few of these, but many are very close and report the same obs and one of them on there now isn’t even a town (Sandy Hook)


Thank you for your time and reading my suggestions.

If it was Dish Network, it wouldn't have star.  You would just see the national feed with national locals.

Tippah is the county which is covered by Wxscan but not by the SD Istar. Note: Wxscan counties do not necessarily have to match I-star domestic. It is the H/e's choice as to the area severed. We follow what they tell us...Thus, don't assume they should always match. I did widen the Wxscan radar a little to allow Batesville to show. Otherwise, counties show on the radar as they should according to the area served.

Mike is correct, H/E has to request such changes. Of note, when extra cities are added, other packages have to be dropped to make room.

Your request for the scroll in the Perimeter Airport Scroll of adding McKellar Sipes Regional Airport has been done.

We've had a few reports of SD Locals playing without the 36-hour text forecast and 7-Day forecast.  If you do see this, please let us know and what time it happened.  Thanks.

I checked into this and there is a problem for SD Istars including Wxscan between 2-3am ET.  Appears Current Observations are not being sent or timing out.  I wrote up a ticket for this and it is being investigated.  Thanks for the heads up.
