KUL ATIS

Hi Rage...first of all...greetings to all from ATC. The onward relay transmitter mentioned earlier was for 132.6 and NOT the ATIS tx which is at KLIA itself. The one at Kuantan is at a place called Bukit Pelindong.
Shameful as it sounds, there is no way Kuantan is going to tx the KUL weather from their station. Why should they. It is not their problem. Maybe we should tx on the SZB ATIS. That might help. I need to know the point at which u guys can pick SZB ATIS if u coming in from the EAST. Let me know please.
Secondly ATC would not know what u mean by "Negative Alternate".
Thirdly...swithching runways depends entirely on KLIA Tower. It may be ok if a request is made from 14L to 14R.(if duty Rwy is 14) But if u are requesting 32 then goodluck to u.
fourthly....I am not related to the devil in any way and I don't intend to.
