Same here except I am getting the shaded areas all over the CONUS. The
filter b/caesvr is not working without the t/n
I've tried a few other filters but nothing comes thru unless I use t/n
But its working, I'm happy

I forgot that the UIview remailer horribly mangles formatted text.
Disregard all the asterisks and underscores in the file names and strings
to be
replaced. These are artifacts of the UIview group Yahoo remailer mangling
boldface and underlining I had used in my original posting.

Right-clicking NWS watches and warning entries in the UI-NWS lists
offers the
option "Finger NWS Server" to retrieve the full text of NWS bulletins in
UIview. This feature stopped working when the original WXSVR shut down
in 2009.
Thanks to the work of AE5PL and KF0ED, this function can now be
restored. A new
server provided by AE5PL now provides the finger function once again.
Editing
the two files *UIview32.INI* and *UINWS.INI* , located in the main
UIview
program folder, enables this feature with the new server.
* Shut down UIview.
* Locate the string *FQDN=WxSvr.net* in each file, and replace it
with *FQDN=wxsvr.ae5pl.net*.
* Restart UIview.
My web pages at
<>
and
<>
have been updated to reflect this change.
----------------------------------------------------------
*A reminder**:* If you connect to any of the usual APRS webservers, you
will
only get the US National Weather Service *WARNINGS* (severe weather
actually in
progress). NWS WARNINGS light up transparent red overlays on map
displays.
You will NOT get the NWS *advisories* (potential weather problems) that
light
up yellow overlays, or *watches* (severe weather imminent but not yet
happening) that light up orange overlays.
You CAN receive all ADVISORIES, WATCHES and WARNINGS by connecting to
"Firenet"
instead of one of the usual APRS servers. FireNet is a separate server
system
operating in parallel with the standard APRS-IS.
It provides the full APRS-IS feed, plus hundreds of other objects of
interest
to SAR groups, disaster incident commanders. EOC managers and others.
FireNet
includes earthquake epicenters, forest fires, stream and river water
gauges,
_and_ the full NWS weather feed.
Insert *firenet.us* port *14580* into your APRS software server login
setup,
instead of a "normal" APRS server. In UIview, this would be added to the
APRS
server list in the "Setup, APRS Server Setup" dialog by using the
keyboard
"Ins" (Insert) key and entering *firenet.us:14580* and then checking
the
box
to enable the new entry.. The standard port 14580 *user-defined filter
commands* work on FireNet .
