I'm outside the coverage area for 929.6625 and/or the internal antenna has been disconnected. There could be two possible problems (or both). My Brookstone device fires up in the 'ready to receive mode', but does not show any weather data. SPOK publishes online coverage maps for each state and there is a map for 929.6125 and another map for 929.6625. The 929.6625 MHz frequency is apparently now licensed to SPOK for nationwide data simulcasts. I also have the same model that I picked up second hand, but it is configured differently and has no frequency printed anywhere that I can find. I found a Brookstone 5 Day Weather Forecaster on eBay that has an image of the back after it had been opened. LaCrosse does make a $165 MSRP model C83100 Color Wi-Fi Weather Station with 7-day AccuWeather forecasts but not at a glance - req button presses. Unfortunately, these LaCrosse devices try to best-guess the WX based on a pre-programmed barometric model vs the accurate AccuWeather Presently my Brookstone (no model # on unit, powered by Ambient) 5-Day Weather Forecaster is still going strong and shows 3 signal bars in SATX.īushnell has a trade-in program to send in your Bushnell FX unit and they will send you a La Crosse Wireless Color Weather Station model C85845v3. Note: There were NO MONTHLY FEES but certainly license fees were paid by the likes of Brookstone, Sharper Image, Radio Shack, Bushnell & Ambient.įurther I have 2 Radio Shack Cat # 63-1085 5-Day Weather Forecaster that both quit updating approx Feb 2018 but do show Ambient signal at startup. Question #4 : Does anyone know if these consumer weather display devices have say CAP CODES and thus are addressable to authorize their service ? Is there a program that does the format and protocol info needed to view the 5 or 7-Day Weather Forecast data that is provided by AccuWeather(dot)com ? Question #3 : Can this AIN datacasting be decoded and displayed using an SDR and a PDW type software that does POCSAG, FLEX, ACARS etc ?
