None of the software packages we support decode (parse) the data you are
interested in and write it into a Postgres database.  If you are not
locked into this approach, you may be interested in using GEMPAK:

Unidata HomePage
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu

  Software -> GEMPAK
  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/gempak

I think that GEMPAK has a decoder for the data you are interested in,
but I can not guarantee this.

The other thing you could do is join one or more of the topical email
lists that we maintain and post a message on it(them) to see if
anyone in the Unidata community is processing the data you are
interested in in the same way that you want (i.e., Postgres).

You can (un)subscribe to any/all of the email lists that we maintain
online at:

Unidata HomePage
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu

  Support -> Mailing lists
  https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/index.html#mailinglists

Click on the Subscribe tab in the last page and select the email
list(s) of interest.  The list that may be your best bet is 'ldm-users'.

Cheers,

Tom
