Are you saying that WeeWX is already creating AX.25 frames with the $UTLW format? If so and it's KISS, then that's exactly what I need to feed to a TNC for the station. In a perfect world, that's exactly what I would need. WeeWX brings in the data from the AcuRite, formats it to $UTLW, builds the KISS AX.25 frame and spits it out either via USB (/ttyAMA0 or whatever) or through the UART pins to a serial interface.
