Weather Infobox WIB2

Excellent product

I bought the WIB2 as a cheap replacement for a failed NASA NAVTEX receiver. Long-wave and short-wave sea weather reports are received with a freely programmable Seal WE-FAX501, which is no longer available in the market. This also NAVTEX is to receive, however, partially overlap the transmission times. As a sailor you do not need NAVTEX necessarily. The information is also available on the internet, eg. B. via httpswww.dwd.deDEfachnutzerschifffahrtfunkausstrahlungnavtex_node.html. Sea weather reports, FAX weather charts and NAVTEX are complete with the Moerer weather info box WIBE (Europe) to receive, corresponds to my receiver Seal WE-FAX501. As long as the Internet is available near the coast, you can get much more detailed and longer-term weather forecasts. More informative than classic sea weather reports are GRIB data, which can be B. be loaded with the freeware program zyGRIB from the Internet and can be displayed in a map selectable by coordinates. Weather reports from different sources do not always have to match. Local conditions such as land-sea-wind effect, cap and nozzle effects can lead to serious deviations. M. Brandes, SY Libra
