I've been trying to add a WMS layer from NOAA's NowCoast data from here http://nowcoast.noaa.gov/help/mapservices.shtml?name=mapservices

I've been successful in adding it to a mxd and publishing it and consuming it as a ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer.

I want to be able to use a single layer from the WMS server as a WmsLayer. I've used the radar example from the silverlight examples but haven't been able to get this to work.

It just comes up empty.


for testing, I'm using
<esri:WmsLayer ID="GOES IR"                    
                           Url="http://nowcoast.noaa.gov/wms/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/obs"
                           ProxyUrl="http://serverapps.esri.com/SilverlightDemos/ProxyPage/proxy.ashx"           
                           Layers="RAS_GOES_I4" Version="1.1.1"
                           Opacity="0.7" Visible="True"  />


Is there any way to add the layer from my map service without using DynamicMapService or can someone point me to the propper way to add this as a WMS layer.

Thanks!

one week ago, I tried to use nowcoast WMS layers,  it didn't work as we expected, it was to slow.

Here is some real-time hurricane  layer links,  you may want to take a look, I like it better.
