Post subject:  ATIS

When tuning to ATIS, when the ATIS audio begins, I hear a chime (like the chime for the seat belt signs)... then each time the ATIS recycles (broadcast starts over), the chime sounds again. Is this normal? Also, I've noticed that the ATIS adds the field elevation to the cloud ceilings/heights reported in the METARs. This is incorrect, METER already reports these heights in AGL, PF3 doesn't need to convert them again. Thanks.

I'll check that out. The chime should only happen once when PF3 loads the kneeboard screen for the first time. It doesn't chime when broadcasting the radio. If it does for you then you need to advise your set up. I'll check out the cloud heights for you.
