• 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 have threatnet and i love it but it loads so slow and my signal takes a while to lock on. I'm using the standard antenna that came with it, I'm looking at getting the Digital Antenna for xm (made by digital antenna) it has a 40dB gain on it. Will this help the issue? does anyone use this antenna or anyone heard anything on it? I've put a link below to the antenna
thanks!

are you thinking of placing this on the outside or inside of your vehicle? Keep in mind that outside is way better. Make sure that you order the proper adapter to your xm receiver. I really dont see that you could go wrong with this unit.
 
With my standard antenna it has to be outside otherwise it don't work at all. It seems to me the 40dB gain that the digital antenna has would make getting a signal easier and some what stronger also should recieve data better
