Ever tried hearing the ATIS voice on a VOR?? Pain in the ass. Even with "voice" selected on the receiver it's still way harder to hear than a dedicated VHF frequency especially at 150 nm....

The ATIS broadcast on an NDB is actually better than a VOR!!

The way to go is Digital ATIS for ACARS, much better
