Richard, When I manually fetch the files, each download succeeds:
78 [scott /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/Online]$ fetch http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif JGX_N0R_0.gif 100% of 27 kB 1548 kBps 79 [scott /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/Online]$ fetch http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif JGX_N0R_0.gif 100% of 28 kB 242 kBps I'm not seeing xastir fetch the file or display the gif already downloaded. Any further suggestions? - Scott On Feb 17, 2008 9:03 PM, Richard Polivka, N6NKO <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Scott, > > You may be looking at the wrong file on the server. > > Here is the .geo that I have for that site: > > #[JGX_N0R - produced from .gfw file by K1KWP - 2006-07-18] > URL http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif > TIEPOINT 0 0 -85.9106 35.0210 > TIEPOINT 600 550 -80.7828 30.3205 > IMAGESIZE 600 550 > REFRESH 720 > > Change this line "URL > http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif"; to read > "URL http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif";.
