Hello, everyone. Great to be a part of your forums, and I'm looking forward to learning a lot here.
I am from Canada, and went to Kansas last year to chase, but persistent upper ridging only gave me a suntan.
Looking forward to chasing this year; planning on using Wichita as a base (good choice?). I wanted to know what would be best for me for data. I was thinking about ThreatNet, and understand you only have to pay WX subscription by the month, which sounds like a good deal.
For me, the cost of the hardware looks substantial, based on the premise that I'll only be using it while on the Plains. I don't think it will be much use when I return home.
Would ThreatNet still be a worthwhile investment, or should I look at using my cell phone, and loading up with software like Digital Atmosphere?
Any input would sure be appreciated.
