• 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.

DeLorme Street Atlas 2006

After checking the laptop last night - I can now say that it is in fact StreetAtlas 2005 that we were using - not 2004. And it still sucks.

I use Topo USA 4.0 and Mobile threat net at the same time while chasing. Both are very resource intensive and apparently have memory leaks. At about five hours the entire system will come to its knees and require a reboot. My laptop has 512 Meg of memory, a friend running a full gig of memory can by without the reboot.

Topo is nice it that it will help you find the hills, which can enable you to hit that remote repeater and also get a better view of the storm.

Hey Bob does Topo USA also do the same as StreetAtlas? I mean do you get the same roads or does it show the roads better than StreetAtlas or the same but with hills?
