OK
I filter the incoming available data from APRS-IS for local data.
weeWx has sent out my data to APRS-IS, and I collect it along with
other items of local interest (bushfires, storm warnings) and broadcast
them all. This also collects packets from HF APRS users in the
district, or those sending data to APRS-IS through the phone system.
There is a weeWx extension which is able to produce a wxnow.txt file.
Because my weeWx and APRS are on different hardware it became too much
effort to sort out as the existing system worked most of the time.
