• 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.

Weather Alerts to a Pager

The pager is what I'm talking about. The place I went to to get a pager told me that I had two options. One, I could get a pager that had coverage out in the country, but the coverage only covered the state of Kansas. The second option was to get a pager that would get coverage nation wide, but you would only get coverage (recieve messages) when you were in or around a major city.
I just don't understand why you can't get good pager coverage like you do with a cell phone. It would be nice to have a pager that you could count on to have service in multiple states out in the middle of nowhere (basically the same kind of coverage you get with a cell phone). Isn't that possible? Do I just need to go to a different company to get a pager if I want a wider coverage area?
 
Yeah--pager coverage went down the crapper in the 90s as PCS took over. Skytel used to have amazing coverage. There are some satellite paging companies (or were several years ago). You might want to look into a cheap cell phone through a major network than a pager. If you're interested in a small device, I can make some good recommendations on ebay for ya. Feel free to PM me :)
