rkolsen 1693 Posted October 14, 2017 Author Posted October 14, 2017 I’m most certainly confident, NBC cancelled the planned San Diego region Doppler, it has disappeared from most recent promos. They still promote a 3rd Doppler.
CaptainNews 287 Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 They still promote a 3rd Doppler. I stand corrected...
rkolsen 1693 Posted October 15, 2017 Author Posted October 15, 2017 I stand corrected... Unfortunately there are no license applications or construction permits. Maybe sometime in the future there will be a third.
rkolsen 1693 Posted October 15, 2017 Author Posted October 15, 2017 I’m most certainly confident, NBC cancelled the planned San Diego region Doppler, it has disappeared from most recent promos. Do any of the San Diego stations own their own Doppler? I ask because when a station modifies their transmitter they have to take into consideration the neighboring country and interference. I’m not sure if that applies to radars but I assume it does.
Eat News 4745 Posted October 15, 2017 Posted October 15, 2017 Do any of the San Diego stations own their own Doppler? No. Not even the TJ / Baja stations. The WX service radar seems to be the drug of choice.
CaptainNews 287 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I can confirm that the San Diego Doppler has disappeared in the most recent promo, promoting fire coverage. I will post a video/picture once I see it again. Apparently, YouTube TV blacks out your screenshots...

What a shame. Although other cable services probably have better offers. Needless to say, the Doppler should’ve been photographed for evidence.

I have Spectrum, would’ve used their app but you can’t reverse within the app.
Williams1402 45 Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 I have Spectrum, would’ve used their app but you can’t reverse within the app. Well, you could use your phone unless it doesn't have enough space to record a video that's a minute or two long.
CaptainNews 287 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Well, you could use your phone unless it doesn't have enough space to record a video that's a minute or two long. I will wait till I see the promo again, or until it gets posted to YouTube.
CaptainNews 287 Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Found it! There is a second version like this with the Doppler Domination tag named “Powerful”
rkolsen 1693 Posted October 17, 2017 Author Posted October 17, 2017 Found it! There is a second version like this with the Doppler Domination tag named “Powerful” Very good. However they still appear to air the Power of Four online.
CaptainNews 287 Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Just seen the one I was wanting to post for awhile, did a little trick and outsmarted the YouTube TV app.
rkolsen 1693 Posted December 2, 2017 Author Posted December 2, 2017 Either KXAS is getting another Doppler Radar “network” or NBC is adding some more buggies to their fleet.

[ATTACH=full]4845[/ATTACH] They replied “Indeed” to my comment. I can’t find the license for new Rangers unless the company is referring to their Ford trucks with the marine radars.
rkolsen 1693 Posted December 8, 2017 Author Posted December 8, 2017 NBC does not have the balls to send those things anywhere near danger. Knowing NBC they would send a MMJ up to SF where they would be carjacked and SB would be stripped by tweakers who would just end up living in it. Surprisingly they put it really close to danger yesterday. It was set up only directly a few miles to the east of the Thomas Fire.

CaptainNews 287 Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 NBC Boston, Telemundo Boston and NECN got their own Storm Ranger! [MEDIA=instagram]Bca_UPIlLcV[/MEDIA] Not surprised. It’s a VERY big market. Extremely dangerous weather at some points in time.
rkolsen 1693 Posted December 10, 2017 Author Posted December 10, 2017 Not surprised. It’s a VERY big market. Extremely dangerous weather at some points in time. I could see at some point NBC selling data to adjacent affiliates to offset the costs of these trucks.
rkolsen 1693 Posted December 22, 2017 Author Posted December 22, 2017 WNJU got their own branded storm chasing vehicle called Busca Tormentas. I think this maybe the first Telemundo Owned station to have their own storm chasing truck not shared with NBC. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1206802932755272

Don't you know this trick RKO? I bet the cheap bastards have the "Storm Ranger" in English on the passenger side of the buggy. "Always the skeptic" they tell me. That's what they did with KFMB's "Chopper-8"...on the other side it's painted "760am" for the radio side of the operation. KFMB shot 2 versions of the latest commercial...one for TV...one for radio. Feliz Navidad RKO. Eat some crabcake...then eat some holiday news.
rkolsen 1693 Posted February 6, 2018 Author Posted February 6, 2018 KNBC is now promoting four state of the art radars. Time to check those files again...
rkolsen 1693 Posted February 7, 2018 Author Posted February 7, 2018 I couldn’t find any thing else yet besides their licenses for the two existing x-band radars, the storm buggy,. So I assume the other two are the NWS ones. Also, a while back KXAS had an OTT promo for all their weather fleet. Well they updated the promo: [MEDIA=vimeo]254369593[/MEDIA] Texas Thunder Truck now has a sister Lightning: [MEDIA=vimeo]254370196[/MEDIA]
