Several of my pilot friends have been noticing degraded performance from their XM Satellite Weather systems, like very slow to receive the first data packet, and subsequent updates spaced out up to an hour apart (they are supposed to update every 5 minutes, max). Has anyone else been experiencing problems? Rumor has it that XM is experiencing bandwidth limitations and have selectively degraded those users they consider "infrequent" users. I don't even know if this makes sense, but I'm throwing it out anyway for those who are much more technical than I am.
