I've done 6 or 7 trips with the new ActiveSky WXre v1.6 but found some problems regarding to the winds readback. For the METAR:KLGA 171451Z 06007KT 10SM BKN044 BKN075 12/04 A2985 RMK AO2 SLP109 T01170044 55001 $FlightWatch said "winds six zero zero at seven". As for another trip, FlightWatch said "winds zero zero zero at zero" what should be said "winds calm".Another problem is that FlightWatch plays PC Speaker beeps in place of saying some letters and numbers! Also, it keeps speaking too much time after switching COM1 back to another frequency (sometimes one or two whole cycles of weather information). Best regards,Jalok

Jalok,Thanks for the feedback.#1. Mistake by FlightWatch, don't know why.#2. "Winds calm" or "calm" is not recorded, so FlightWatch has no choice but to say what it did.#3. Some METAR information does not have a .wav file to play, so the beep sounds. Some beta testers suggested a better sound to play.#4. To prevent this, you can switch COM1 back as soon as the first cycle starts. This should prevent any more cycles from playing. We looked into an automatic switch-back of the COM radio, but it just didn't make it into this version.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Support

Hi,The "calm" voice file appears missing from 1.6. I will fix this asap.wind 600 at xx cannot duplicate! The automatic un-tune feature was not possible due to inability to set COM radio in some circumstances. I am still working on this, and hope to have a solution I can implement in 1.7.The ding sound is really not changable via wxRE but you can change your windows system default ding sound which is what plays when there is a missing voice file.Hope that helps!-Damian[table border=0" cellspacing="30" cellpadding="0][tr][td align = "left"]Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation SoftwareDeveloper of ActiveSkyThe next-generation weather environment simulation for FS2002!http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky[/td][td]http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/images/wxrebeta.jpg][/td][/tr][/table://http://hifi.avsim.net/activesky/ima...][/tr][/table

I actually encountered a similar problem on a flight into Madrid, yesterday. Flightwatch was calling the winds at 800 instead of 080. Sorry, but I don't have the full METAR to give you.
