What does your WMO/AWIPS header look like in your LDM pqact config? Note: Most US (domestic) ICAOs are prefixed with either a "K" (CONUS) or a "P" (Alaska and Hawaii) # Stations lists reference https://aviationweather.gov/docs/metar/stations.txt Here are some examples of what we use for METARs and TAFs from our various LDM pqact config files. # US and Canadian sfc obs and specials # WMO ^S[AP] PIPE decoders/dcmetr -v 2 -a 500 -m 72 -s sfmetar_sa.tbl -d data/gempak/logs/dcmetr.log -e GEMTBL=/opt/gempak/GEMPAK/gempak/tables data/gempak/surface/YYYYMMDD_sao.gem # Decoder for TAFs # WMO ^FT PIPE -close decoders/dctaf -d data/gempak/logs/dctaf.log -e GEMTBL=/opt/gempak/GEMPAK/gempak/tables data/gempak/taf/YYYYMMDD00.taf # Raw Surface data WMO S[AP].* ....

While I see METARs for both domestic and foreign airports, I don't see TAFs for airports outside the US. Does anyone know if TAFs for non-US airports are available via NOAAPORT? That is, am not looking for them correctly, or are they just not there to be found?
