That song is actually "El Sueno de la Arana Roja" by David Becker, from his Leaving Argentina album. It's available in many places, including iTunes.

A second song from that album "Racin' Through the Andes" (track 7) was used in the same playlist as the arabian song ( I believe it was 11/06)
the arabian song played in Feb 2007.

Would the junior show a tan scroll for a flood watch or a wind advisory?

The junior is newer. In fact, I'm pretty sure the junior came out the year I was born. The 4000 came out in 1990, IIRC.

The 3000 was pretty common in the late 80's. The junior was more of an alternative to more expensive STARs like the 4000 and later the XL.

They probably don't since it's all text based, and not many people would be interested in a text based LF.

I wish my college and hospital would have the Junior. I heard Rutgers University has a weatherstar 4000 from Kevin K?

Much cheaper. The Junior is $500, where as the XL is $6,500. I don't know the cost of the IntelliStar, but it's probably cheaper than the other Stars (except the Junior) since it uses PC-based technology.
