I agree - I use the Internet as a convenience for weather-on-demand.
I still have a conventional SAME-encoded "all hazards" radio connected to a
node monitor-only node, running on VOX.
If there is some really urgent event, it comes on the radio immediately.
Keying up the weather radio forces you to listen to a whole cycle of program
before you hear the forecast. The Internet version is quicker.
There is a use for both approaches.

I'm wondering if we are getting too dependent on the Internet for weather
information. It might be time to consider if you want weather audio on your
repeater, a NOAA receiver might be worth looking into.
Just a thought. YMMV
