Any ways that are visible more often than the once-in-a-blue-moon boot screen?

The STAR team could get that info for you, but I wouldn't ask unless you had an issue with it and ask what the ID was to go along with that.

Since knowing the ID number of my Weatherscan unit isn't high up there on my list of priorities, I don't think I'll be asking anytime soon.  :smoke2:

Yes. It had to rebooted several times because it was frozen. It came on in the afternoon sometime last week after a freeze.

Basically, the ID number for any IntelliStar (including the Weatherscan IntelliStar) can be used to show an approximate age of the unit. Units from 2003 (which is when the IS was first introduced) are down in the low 20000s. The ID numbers generally increase with each unit that is rolled out. New units are now in the low 30000s, which basically infers that about 10,000 IntelliStar (and Weatherscan IntelliStar) units have been added in the past seven years.

Anyone Else's Weatherscan been "Skipping" or the radar go out about 2-2.5 hours ago? My radar went out then by the time it came back, it was kinda "skipping" where both the audio and video froze for a split second.

Our Weatherscan in Topeka "skips" (basically freezes for a second) often. It completely freezes all the time, tho. It's been frozen since 10:40PM. It's now 1:22AM. This has been happening since the day we got it on May 19th.
