ATIS overhaul by John Denker, adapted to trunk by me. 8:: AWOS is available at AWOS locations. (Previously only ATIS was implemented.) 9:: ATIS phraseology now more nearly conforms to international standard METAR pattern, and therefore to usual FAA practice.(*) Items marked with a (*) are fully implemented in the /text/ of the ATIS message, but the voiced version of the message is degraded by limitations of the FGFS built-in text-to-speech system. 10:: ATIS now reports sky condition.(*) 11:: ATIS now reports multiple layers of clouds, not just the lowest layer.(*) 12:: ATIS now takes field elevation into account when calculating sky condition and ceiling. 13:: ATIS now reports dewpoint.(*) 14:: ATIS now can handle negative quantities (temperature and dewpoint).(*) 15:: ATIS can now report report fractional-mile visibility.(*) 16:: ATIS now uses magnetic (not true) wind directions, as it should. 17:: ATIS generates correct runway number and suffix (nine right, one one left). 18:: ATIS can be received on nav frequencies, not just comm. 19:: Nothing bad happens if the same ATIS is tuned up on more than one receiver. 20:: ATIS can be updated at times other than at the top of the hour. 21:: ATIS listens for an "attention" signal, and responds to changes in the weather by issuing a new ATIS message (somewhat like a "special observation"). 22:: ATIS volume now responds to radio volume setting. 23:: Area-related services (i.e. approach radar) are handled more-nearly consistently with radio-frequency related services. 24:: ATIS sequence-letter generation has been fixed. 25:: ATIS messages are now in the property tree, so they can be read e.g. via the http interface.
