Ok… upon further review… there was one additional feature to toggle off… it was the “Restrict Near User Location”… so once I did the items you mentioned, and then shut off the “Restrict Near User Location” I was able to get the SpotterNetwork red dot to come up.
Not sure which RadarScope update had this change in it… I don’t recall seeing it in the change logs. Either way thanks for the tips, and hopefully the last one I added will help someone else out there too
