Happened to catch the Lexington Radar screen on Silicondust:



Looks like the LDL has Lexington and Winchester, not sure about the 3rd city...

My IntelliStar's radar was temporarily unavailable at 8:28 PM ET.
Two hours later, and it's still down.

Mine is out too, is this a national issue with the IS?

It certainly appears to be the case.

Mine's not working either, but what's even more strange is that the radar/satellite is working just fine. :blink:

Weatherscan shows Temporarily Unavailable on the radars too and the Bottom-Left Quadrant (Where the Radar is supposed to be) is Missing.

My IntelliStar's radar came back around 11:30 AM. It still needs to load 3 hours worth of data.

Makes sense, because they're completely different feeds.

Is there a way a cable company could have 2 or more Intellistar Headends on 1 system?

for example (New Bedford) and the adjacent headend (Taunton)

and appear on different channel frequencies? (45 & 47)

I'm pretty sure Comcast's Cherry Hill system is like that. There are locations in that area that receive the same Weatherscan and same exact channel lineup and services, but different domestic stars depending on where you are.

Yup, Comcast in Pittsburgh is like that too. They have several different IntelliStars, but only operates two Weatherscans, one for metro Pittsburgh and points south, and several WV and OH counties, and the other for northern counties and a few east central OH counties.

For some odd reason, the DirecTV IS has been displaying the original blue LOT8s bug instead of the standard white one all day today :huh:
