vATIS V4 Question on saved composites

Hi Ya Justin,

Loading up composites for my ARTCC and have a question. For an airport, I loaded the ARPT COND and the NOTAMs dialogue boxes with selections for check boxes and then saved it as a composite json file. I then uploaded that file to a new Profile, as we can only have four in a Profile, and the info did not transfer with the json file: the ARPT COND and the NOTAMs dialogue boxes were blank. The instructions said it should save. Am I doing something wrong as I do not want to manually add this info for each case of a composite use.

Also when I look into the json file the information is captured there, it is just not showing up when I open that airport in a new profile.

Thanks for any info or suggestions, Ed Sterling ZAB_FE

Problem solved:

When I wrote over an existing gz copy of the airport in the new profile the info did not show.

When I deleted the gz copy of the airport in the profile and then added the json file as new all the info showed.

So, you can not overwrite a gz file with a json file and have it work correctly.

Hope this helps others, Ed
