I agree. One of the spherics mfrs. is already running ads defending its
product against data linked weather. That's a sign to me they know they're
in trouble. Stormscope and Strikefinder are headed the way of Loran,
IMO--pretty good technology overcome by better.

Having said that, let me add that I would love to have a spherics device in
my panel for the real time data it would provide. But would I buy one now
and install it, knowing the utility I get from satellite weather? Heck, no.
