He's essentially asking if there is a way to save a short list of individual
station metar reports to their own directory - as they come in from the IDD. I
remember doing this as a post process with Peter Nelley's 'Weather' program, in
conjunction with the ldm pqsurf queue.
Is there a way to do this with the ldm, maybe with a decoder?
