Curiosity question.

Hi,Just wondering. When AS does a refresh, what is the range of WX stations that are updated?Thanks,...jim

Hi Jim,200 miles I believe, same as the initial write. This allows for smooth transitions between stations.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Pardon me for butting my nose in, but I'm curious now....What do you mean by "refresh"?ThanksTim

Hi Tim,In Online Mode AS is set to download the weather. You can set the interval from 10 to 60 minutes. This pulls in new stations based on your current location and updates the METARS.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Hi All,I may need to correct myself here. In some of the later releases we may have bumped this up to 500 miles. Now I am not sure myself. I do know is not less than 200 or more than 500.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg

Cool! Thanks Jim.I'll try it now. I'm LIRF'ing to EDDF in the hope of finding some dodgy weather...assuming it's winter up yonder here's hoping....CheersTim
