[Xastir] NWS Weather Alerts

[David Flood]

And I can confirm that something is broke about the latest maps.I see the
alerts show up in the view window, I see the "loading weather alerts"
message in the lower left, but nothing shows up.

 

This is with both Cygwin and OpenSuse 10.3 with just the world map
displayed.  I've got the latest NWS files (and even went back under Cygwin
and loaded some old 2009/2010 ones I've got on a share) as well as the
latest CVS as of yesterday.all putting those extra files out there is make
the "loading" message stay on the screen longer.

Ok, check your feed then.it has to be one of the firenet servers (or the
round robin firenet.aprs2.net), you have to have a valid confirmation code
(even in rx only mode) and you have to have "t/n e/WE7U-WX" as part of your
parm string.and it is case sensitive.

Nothing listed at all right now.  I was here while some of the warnings were
still active late this afternoon.  There was nothing listed then either.

If you go to View / Weather Alerts, is anything listed?

Something does appear to be messed up...I've got a lot of alerts in just the
last five minutes and nothing is lit up on the map...

And I'm not getting any warnings about DBFAWK files in the term window...so
that's not it..

Anyone know if Weather Alerts are broken again?
