You might find some interesting information on Navy's WestPac METOC
site, Geoffrey. Look on:

https://207.133.112.37/cgi-bin/home.pl

If your browser warns of the secure certificate, just click YES. Navy
is a little paranoid these days but their weather is 1st class.

Click on "Contact the Command" and ask the USNavy for a WEFAX freq
list and sked of the broadcasts. I'm sure they can tell you what you
need to know about WestPac on the air transmissions.

The German HF FAX webpages may also have the information you seek.
It's massive databases are on:
http://www.hffax.de/
in English. I think he has every WEFAX transmission on the planet
documented on this website.

NWS lists Worldwide Marine Weather Fax Broadcast Schedules at:
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/om/marine/rfax.pdf
Read and print the pdf file with Adobe Acrobat Reader.
This pointer came off NWS site:
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/om/marine/radiofax.htm

I'm sure you'll find what you need from these sites.

Bon Voyage!.....We're all green with envy. See those boats trailing
you on the horizon? That's us all....(c;

This winter I'll be headed through the Canal and off to French Polynesia
and then to New Zealand for hurricane season. I'm not sure what sources
I'll have for radio weather faxes. Who transmits what and on what
frequencies/times/etc? Are their web sites that I can preview what I can
see what they're transmitting?

Thanks, Geoff

3600 planes with transponders are burning 8-10 million
gallons of kerosene per hour over the USA. R-12 car air
conditioners are responsible for the ozone hole, right?
