Is there a weather source who provides daily updated Text-Only information ...

out there ? I've tried BuoyWeather, they have a nice concept, but I can't get it to work. Been working for a day with the tech guys and we couldn't get it, either a problem on their end or my server blocking their emails, but I don't think that's the case. I've altered my spam blockers and the email provider is telling me their stuff is not blocked.

I'm looking for a source who can email text-only information like wind speed & direction, waves, or text forecast etc. for virtual buoys, actual buoys, forecast for certain LAT/LON's at specified times.

I use a satellite phone for email, so text-only is a requirement. I'm looking for where I can send in data, and shortly thereafter receive info back for that location.

Unfortunately at the moment not set up for SSB and Pactor modem.

thanks, cheers, John
