• 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.

I'm selling my Sprint PCS Connection Card on Ebay. Click on the images to get to the auction site with many more details and specs for the card.

The reason I'm selling this is that I purchased a new Nokia 6820 and the data connection cable should be sufficient for cellular internet needs. And the reason I don't need cellular anymore is that I have XM now, and between that and wi-fi, should be all set for data.

I can't recommend this card enough. It performed brilliantly last season along all major interstates and many secondary highways, particularly in eastern Kansas, eastern Nebraska, and along interstates 27, 35, 44, 20, 70, and 80. It maintains an almost continuous signal along the "highway to heaven" in Texas, 287, between the DFW metroplex and the panhandle, and at least 100 miles west of Denton on 380.

A major advantage of a card like this is that if you have a motel room without wi-fi, then as long as you're in a Sprint town or near the interstate, you'll have relatively high-speed connectivity without hassling with motel phones. Not to mention it is a much more stable connection than a typical Ositech-style setup, and so you can drive hundreds of miles without dropping the signal. I can go from Indianapolis to Kansas City on the same session.

This is a PCMIA Card which means it plugs into your laptop and runs through the installed software. However it is a cell phone, with its own 'phone number,' which means you must activate service through Sprint PCS. They are constantly expanding their network.

Again, the auction is located here.
