It's easier to remember as 877 any-awos. I've got it programmed into
the cell phone and it makes the last minute check of the conditions as
I drive to the airport easy.


It would be nice if after listening to all the ads on any-awos, if they
actually connected one to the chosen AWOS. But, in my case, I merely got
disconnected.

TERRIBLE service. Anyway, long distance is free on my cell phone. There is a
listing of AWOS phone numbers somewhere on the web, but I can't find it now.

If you are using your cell phone out of your service area, you will, in many
cases be connected to your home FSS. For instance, we are in Tererboro and
call 800-992-7433, I'll get the Seattle FSS. Here are the discrete numbers
to prevent that.
