I don't understand either. I'm telling you to use the dial-up radar menu option at the bottom, or the regional radar menu option at the top.

After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

Okay. I am using Regional and National Mosaics. Dial Radars are giving me the same dashes. What can I do for WFO?

With professional grade radar available in the palm of your hand for $10, how is it worth this much trouble (and far more than $10 in the value of time) messing with this?

Since I'm configured for GRR, I just click the 'kgrr' option next to Satellite.
If you want another site, you click Radar/ Dial Radars / Other Radars /and select your site there.

For some reason I don't have the kgrr option. I will mess around with the Other Radars. Thank you so much for your guidance on all of this. I appreciate it.

When you started up what WFO are you choosing? That will be the shortcut you see on the top menu.

D2D is not a WFO. Pick a National Weather Service office next time, preferably one near you.

Now that I have gotten AWIPS to work (for the most part), the only other thing I wish I could back on it is the split-screen. I used to be able to do that through the Radar section.

You still can do it. You can do a 4 panel, you can do a three panel border with one main screen, and much more. Have you read the documentation?

I strictly use Apple products, ie MacBook Pro, iPhone and iPad and have to say RadarScope is awesome. If you have a iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro running at least macOS 13 and have an Apple ID you can get RadarScope on all three devices. Once you purchase it iCloud lets you download it on your additional device at no additional charge. Just did it 3 weeks ago when I upgraded my MacBook Pro and my iPad and had absolutely no problems installing it once I was signed into my Apple ID. Well worth the $10.00 and as good if not better than GR level 3.
