March 13, 201511 yr Commercial Member Kyle, I'm probably just showing my stupidity here but what more actions do I have to take to get the weather radar actually showing something, besides having ASN installed and pressing the weather radar button on the efis (and of course having precipitation in the area.....)? Do I have to add some path to some directory somewhere or activate a settingin ASN or the PMDG CDU? Do I need to have a flight plan active in ASN or is the loaded flight plan in PMDG 737NGX (and 777) propagated to ASN? It actually took me quite a while to realize I have a weather button on the EFIS , so I really don't feel like the sharpest tool in the box right now... Of course I might simply have been testing in areas without precipation, but I haven't seen the faintest radar echo yet... Be around precipitation. Have radar on. Done. (You do need ASN and SP1d to use the radar.) Kyle Rodgers

March 13, 201511 yr Commercial Member Alraiti, I should be good to go then - just need to find the right area! Mange takk! Værsågod. Der er også en funktion at søg for dårlige vær i ASN...Stavanger er typisk vått i mars og april =P EDIT: Missed your signature saying you were from Finland since I was on my phone earlier... You're welcome! There is also a function to search for poor weather in ASN. Kyle Rodgers
March 13, 201511 yr Hi Krister, That's all I did during a flight in southern Florida just to increase the chances that I'd find some precip. And sure enough it worked just fine, didn't have to do anything else. Dave Dave Paige
March 15, 201511 yr If you have active sky next. Then you can install a wx radar,from ASN. It will ask you with wich key selection you want to open it. Mostly (shift + 5) I think this is what your looking for. And if you want to find rain try flying from yellow knife to resolute bay.

Thanks guys, going on a precip hunt! Krister LindénEFMA, Finland------------------
