    From Daryl Stout@VERT/TBOLTBBS to All on Tuesday, September 02, 2025 17:30:43
    First, I think Sysop Senility took hold after my nearly a
    year abscence from BBS Networks. :P

    Second, I discovered that my user and QWK accounts had been
    deleted from Vertrauen for not calling in a long time...and
    that was my fault. Once I reset the QWK account, I discovered
    I had the wrong password in my configuration. :P

    But, the main reason for this post, is that I'm looking for
    a couple of Synchronet utilities. The first one is a remake
    of the former SyncWx, that showed the local forecast, plus
    any local weather advisories or bulletins. The second one is
    the Solar Data one, that is used by amateur radio operators.

    I had done a search with DuckDuckGo, and applied for access
    on a Synchronet BBS, where I could get the data, but I never
    heard back on the validation.

    If someone can assist on where I can get these, I'd greatly
    appreciate it.

    Daryl

    Earlier this year, someone was working on a door that was pretty high tech.
    It included radar and everything. I cannot remember what it was called
    but I think some folks here beta tested it. Maybe they can give you a
    nudge towards where to find it.

    AI-WX (or was it WX-AI?) from firesidebbs. If you can't find the telnet address, i can look it up. It has precipication, temperatures, forecasts, as well as ansi and sixel radar images. I run it at shsbbs.net and am pretty
    sure I've got the latest version in my files area.
