Is anyone else having problems with the Avbrief radar? I can get animated
sequences, but the individual radar frames seem unavailable since sometime yesterday (near midday?). -- Bernard Burton Wokingham, Berkshire, UK. Satellite images at: www.woksat.info/wwp.html |

Satellite images at:www.woksat.info/wwp.html Got the same problem here got 0900Z image then no more. The service has been poor recently, unfortunately for me I just renewed before the service went up the spout. I have been with them, I think since the start, when there as a battle to obtain 15 min radar - it is a pity they cannot maintain the service. Andy |

Thanks Andy. The link you gave me has allowed me to recover all the hourly
images from yesterday morning to present. Yes, I agree wholeheartedly about the sorry state of Avbrief. They provided such an exemplary service for several years, but recently they seem to be unable to keep things going, and their response to faults seems to have shrunk to a '9 to 5 working days only' service. -- Bernard Burton Wokingham, Berkshire, UK.

Yes, Col, thanks for that. I do use that site at times. But is it possible
to save individual frames? When I try this, I get the radar display on a black background, without any map. -- Bernard Burton Wokingham, Berkshire, UK.

I emailed support at about 6:30pm on Saturday and had an immediate automated acknowledgement. This included the following information: "AvBrief Private Members Your queries will be handled as quickly as possible usually within one business day." So that means some time on Monday. To say I am unimpressed would be a major understatement. In fact, it's *completely unacceptable* for a paid service and it will a very significant consideration when I next decide whether or not to renew. -- Dave |
