We have had reports of a problem with 1.67wx locking up when downloading weather using Anywhere Link (via the cradle, cell phone, or sat phone). We have reproduced the problem here and have developed several workarounds.
Downloading weather using Anywhere Link (via the cradle, cell phone, or sat phone), AND you select TAFS plus anything else to download, AND you do this via the WX Settings screen, Anywhere Link Downloads button, the system will hang up after the download is complete.
If you do not download TAF's it will not lock up. If you download TAFS via the File>AnywhereLink>Download Metars/TAFs menu or even the File>AnywhereLink>Download Everything link, it also works fine.
This seems to only be a download related issue and we have not seen any other related problems. It does not seem to affect XMWX operation at all.
We do not yet know what is the culprit here -- this section of the code was not changed at all in 1.67, or even in prior few releases.
If you are Using XMWX, we highly recommend upgrading to 1.67. If you are not using XMWX, there is no point in upgrading at this time, as none of the changes in 1.67 are related to AnywhereLink weather and this can effect the operation of your software.
