This sounds like there's some kind of networking issue on your second computer. This can happen when the radar image refresh is attempted and fails. An error message should appear in the YAAC.out file in your log files directory (also viewable
in the Help->About dialog on the Error Log tab, and in the terminal window where you started YAAC if you used one). Whenever you successfully download a radar image, the log should report the refresh time (when NWS says the image will be out-of-date), so you
should be able to predict when YAAC will try to download the image again.
What build of YAAC are you using?

Subject: [yaac-users] inconsistent map behavior
I have the current YAAC version running on different machines. On one ( a RPi 4) NWS raster overlay maps are displayed and refreshed every few minutes. On the other, (an x86 machine), the maps do not refresh. If I delete a previously loaded NWS map, and
manually load a new one, the map displays. Subsequent maps are not displayed. If I look at the "raster maps" window, I always find the enable box unchecked. This happens even though "enable" is checked after loading the first map. Have I mis-configured the
second machine somehow?
