The observational data that we relay in our Internet Data Distribution (IDD)
system is what is sent in the NWS-operated NOAAPort Satellite Broadcast Network
(SBN).  We relay what is sent in the SBN with no modifications to the
content of any product.  Also, as far as I know, there is no source of
FAA station data outside of what is available in NOAAPort.

Cheers,

Tom
