« on: February 01, 2011, 10:58:35 AM »The IS doesn't have that feature, though.It's interesting how the IS2 has holiday names in the LF. So far, I've seen Christmas, New Year's, and MLK Day.
I saw that as early as the WeatherStar III. It depends on how the forecast is written, not from any "holiday sensor" programmed into the Star.

A few minutes ago, Cleveland was misspelled as "Clevelnad." Also, when this storm was forming last week, an L3rd read, "We are covering this storm on on air, online, and on mobile."

Everything Else TWC / Re: What would you do to improve TWC?
« on: January 29, 2011, 09:30:54 AM »Bring back the 4-note chime.And they did bring it back!
When the new LOT8s squeezeback cues, there's a 4-note chime.And a little more:
Stop hyping the weather.
Stop using red mode so much.
Change the YWT opener. It's boring, and it has way too much red.
Bring back PME on weekdays.

On a different note, the Chicago Crapcast headend is finally going digital. On a TV at school that would normally show MSNBC, there was a message saying the TV was not ready for Comcast's "digital enhancement."
Oh, and welcome back, Ana!
