Ok, this link is for everyone out there, but will be a BIG HELP for those of you with BEAMS and it's FREE!

it's called "WEATHERBUG"

you can get it at: WWW.WEATHERBUG.COM

It will give you DOPPLER and CURRENT WIND DIRECTION for your area as well as up to the minute forcast's.

Installs with a link on your tool bar and gives you current temp, and you can click on temp and get all of the information.

A nice thing to have so you can keep those beams headed into the wind at night or when storms are approaching.

This is one of the best sites I have found over the years that is FREE.

Enjoy!

Hey Tech808, Here's another that's not too bad. It's got a lot of options and different things to choose from so just type in your zip code in the top right and it should take you to your area. Just thought I'd throw this one for ya!!

Oh! and before I forget as soon as I can find a way to ship your "Six Pack" with out it blowing up, it will be on it's way to you.

Bruce.
maybe its your computer I have XP and have no problems at all!
Yes it has helped me with my beams but if im not home to turn them it is useless.... I have had to get someone with a bucket truck to help me reset the mast pipe in my rotor several times because i had the antenna west and the wind changed direction and pointed them another direction.. Think this time im gonna drill through the rotor top bracket and the pipe and run a bolt through and pin the rotor for good!!!
