Active radar... Please help !

Featured Replies

Hi guys...I bought the AS2004 two weeks ago (at simmarket.com). Since the first time i tried to use the Active Radar i got a black screen on it, no clouds drew. I just see the winds indicator and the airports. By the way, i'm using the latest release (B175, official AS2004.5 with update #3) My system: Athlon XP 2600+, Kingston 512mb PC4000 HyperX, Abit NF7-S V2, Windows XP PRO, ATI RADEON 9800 PRO...Please, help me guys !

I'm no Active Sky expert, LOL, but you won't see anything unless there's precipitation in the air/clouds. Clouds alone won't display if they aren't associated with rain.Find some place where you know it's raining and start it up that way. It'll display as the NOAA composite or base radar does. Selectable in AR at the top with the arrow menu.

Hi guys !My AR still not working... I turned it on with some rain and everything i got was that black screen :

Hi,If you go to the Tracking Screen does AR recognize your position and is there some sort of precip listed on the precip line.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/as2004proudsupporter.jpg
