I have recently upgraded from ASX to ASA and noticed some incorrect info being passed through ATIS. 1. When on the ground the ATIS weather briefing is accurate and matches what ASA indicated was the current weather at my departure location.2. When getting the arrival weather briefing 50 miles out from landing the report is bizarre -23 C and 26 knot winds (however the aircraft instruments are not showing incorrect temps) yet when tower clears me to land 5 miles out, the windspeed and direction is once again accurate. I was hoping someone might have some ideas on what might be going on here. Where does RC receive its weather info from?ThanksBrent

Are you using DWC in ASA? If so, that's the culprit. It's reporting the weather where you are, not at the airport.

Thanks Patraeus - after searching the HiFi forum without success I neglected to do the same search here. As soon as I posted I saw your post with the same problem. :( I'll turn off DWC which I currently do have on. I also had pauses with contacting different controllers which you had reported and I'm hoping that will be taken care of as well.CheersBrent
