Now that I have 21813, I noticed that it was finally updated with the weather.com text. When was the ad scroll on the squeezeback introduced?

It was introduced in January.

Eric Clapton's "Signe" has been cleared just fyi. (Well not 100% cleared, you get tagged w/ matching 3rd party, but it still can be listened to worldwide.) :thumbsup:

Is anyone's IntelliStar out as of now (not later)? I think 24131 just shut off completely because there was no audio on TWC at 6:10 AM for me and the picture looked to be shifted :huh:

I looked at my DVD recording and it was indeed a reboot of the IntelliStar! I've never seen that happen on 24131 before! :o

Forgive me for asking this, but how do you tell when HiRAD is out? I have a feeling it was out on my IS yesterday.

If your CC screen uses an airport ob, if only the CC screen and no other CC products show, and if the LDL during programming has N/A cuurents but the LF LDL/CC screen had currents

All of the above happened, so HiRAD was out. The CC screen had MIDWAY INT'L ARPT.* as the obs. on the 6:28 PM or 6:38 LF yesterday--I don't remember which--and after that, Chicago had "No Data Available" on the programming LDL, but the other two cities were fine. By the next LF, it was back to normal.

*Normally, ARPT. does not show.

The satellite LDL is still peeking over the IntelliSTAR LDL, which has been going on for months now. Anyone have any idea when they might fix this glitch?  :unsure:

Not quite a year, but about 10-11 months

Don't plan on it being fixed. We notice it, because we pay attention to graphics details. The average viewer doesn't notice it, and even if they did, 9 changes out of 10 they wouldn't care.

Does anyone's IS show the 8-city regularly? On mine, it only seems to show up at random times at :28 and :58.
