Hi!
I'm having trouble adding a newsfeed to Calbre. Here's what I have done and the resukts I got.

[1] Browsed to the NOAA website, clicked on Red/White XML button.

[2] Copied the URL to the clipboard.

[3] In Calibre, I clicked on "Add A Custom News Source"

[4] In the dialog I chose the Feed Title and the Recipe Title as "NOAA"

[5] Pasted the Feed URL into the box.

[6] Clicked on "Add Feed" and "Add/Update Recipe"

[7] Closed the dialog and chose Schedule news Download"

[8] In the dialog, Clicked on Custom->NOAA Download Now.

[9] Selected NOAA to view.

[10] result 3 pages page 3 just said Failed.

Tried again, same steps, but used the URL of the website.

Result: 21 pages all HTML.
