   Howdy! Daryl,   
      
   The WX conditions at the airport is very important to the pilots who   
   bring travelers to and from the airport.   
      
   It also is handy for the next shift of weathermen who are preparing to   
   come to work to know the conditions at the airport.   
      
   I notice that the WX Radio Broadcasts that I listen to has the   
   Conditions at both of the local airports in its hourly broadcasts.   
      
   Sometimes there is a slight difference given for the Temperature, Wind   
   or the Air Pressure at the two airports.   
      
   I notice sometimes the computerized voice that I hear on the WX   
   Broadcasts will mis-pronounce some of the words entered in its Data   
   Bank.   
      
   Here the female voice says words correctly but the male voice will   
   garble some of the words it says.   
      
   One of those words is "Floyd" which is the County that my QTH is at.   
      
   The Data that the male voice is suppose to read could probably be   
   corrected by typing the word Floyd in the Data Bank in a slightly   
   different way than the normal spelling for the word.   
      
   Do You hear any mispronounced words when You listen to the WX Broadcast   
   on Your WX Radio there?
