10:52pm - Damn, it's out again. :angry:
That sucks! It's been down about the same amount of time here too. I have to go to the NWS for radar data, I gotta know when these storms are coming in, they look kinda nasty from the last time I saw them on TWC.

EDIT: The radar is back as of 10:29pm EDT, but only as one frame.

Mine has been very sporadic all day, since about 4:00 PM

For a time this morning, the LF music was distorted and full of static.

oh, I actually thought that was an issue with the Intellistar I was seeing in the Detroit area. I had thought it could be an error on part of TWC, but assumed it was the STAR since it was having all kinds of audio and video issues that morning.
TWC in...
Lansing: Comcast, Channel 36, STAR ID 22840
E. Lansing: Comcast, Channel 40, STAR ID 22842
Lansing Area: Broadstripe, Channel 40, STAR ID 25349
Current STAR count: 32. Be sure to see my channel for links to all the uploads!

I just realized something odd on my intellistar's LDL. As of this morning, it's showing the current conditions for Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley, and Soquel (which has never shown up on the LF before). I wasn't aware that the LDL could show conditions for 3 cities like that.. :unsure:
For me, it's shows Laredo, Hebbronville, and Freer on the current conditions/today tabs.
For New Braunfels, TX, it's shows San Marcos and Seguin.

Bremerton, WA isn't mentioned in Wikipedia's XL list, so it would be a new find.  Where did you find that picture?

The HD receivers got upgraded about a month ago, and in turn, the fonts changed

It looks more clear, but it's also a little more jaggity.
