No, I am saying that I think WeeWX is already creating APRS weather
frames that get carried in AX.25, and that both over-the-air and CWOP
use this format.  I am a bit fuzzy on details, but I think you have a
situation where you have a device (TNC) that wants to read $ULTW format
and translate that to APRS format and then put that string in an AX.25
frame and modulate it over radio.

I am wondering if you could use the TNC in KISS mode and have weewx
generate the AX.25 frame content, by modifying the CWOP transmitter,
and  skip ULTW.
