Anyone on a Mac or iPhone using RadarOmega, or is RadarScope still the "gold standard"?

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 use Scope more than anything else, but like Omega better for velocity. If there was a way to have a composite velocity it would be really nice. I just don’t like bouncing around different radar sites to gather the best view. I’m not sure there’s any practical way where that would be possible though.

Thanks for the info!

I go back and forth between the two. I do like having the ability to use data layers in RadarOmega on top of the radar data (METARS, surface fronts, storm reports, etc.). RadarScope I use for active chasing since it updates your location for Spotter Network.

Good info. Thanks!

If I have AllisonHouse, is there any reason to get a RadarOmega subscription, or just use AllisonHouse with it?
I'm trying to get my weather subscriptions down to just AllisonHouse (Chaser) and Baron Mobile Threat Net (Master Mariner).
