I can't seem to find documentation for pqact
entries on PIREPS & NOTAMS ... can someone
please help?

Patrick,

The GEMPAK decoder dcacft is used to decode PIREPs (and AIRREP, RECCO,
AMDAR [dcacft -help]). See the pqact.gempak_decoders file for the
supplied dcacft pattern action) and the NWS data management cross
reference for WMO IDs "PILOT REPORT":
http://www.weather.gov/datamgmt/x_ref/xr05_X_ref_by_TT.html

NOTAMS are not a NOAAPORT product. For NOTAMS you may be interested in:
