3. SYNOP Data via Short-wave (RTTY)

Several Meteo stations transmit 24 hour daily Teletype (RTTY) Synopsis Data on short wave from weather stations around the globe.


These (5 number) data streams are called as example SYNOP AAXX or SHIP BBXX and are WMO standard.


To decode the SYNOP data you need a SSB  Shortwave or Ham receiver and also an RTTY decoder which decode the numbers into clear text or to convert graphical maps.
