WU-Radar-INC issue
« on: July 16, 2022, 08:47:11 AM »
Something is wrong because I'm using the right LAT/LONG for my location but when i goto switch to switch modes it totally lists Gosport in a different location see URL's below.


mode 4 http://gosportwx.com/wxradar.php?mode=4&animated=0&track=0&advisories=0&lightning=0#WUtop
mode 5 http://gosportwx.com/wxradar.php?mode=5&animated=0&track=0&advisories=0&lightning=0#WUtop

below is my settings.php and WU-Radar-Inc.php

You'll need to reset some of the $CityPosN values in WU-radar-inc.php to have them display the location of Gosport correctly.

Use http://www.gosportwx.com/WU-radar-testpage.php?show=loc and use your mouse to reposition the marker and copy the $CityPosN value into WU-radar-inc.php to fix it.  It doesn't use the lat/long in the script for positioning the markers.
