Hello Nate and all,
Try XASTIR at www.xastir.org, better download from tapr link.
from XASTIR help:
The auto-detect feature will first look for Weather data in a binary
type as the Radio Shack WX-200 uses. If no binary data is found in the
stream, Xastir will look for an ASCII type of WX station (like Peet
Bros.).
I have no WX hardware here.
