Many years since I last heard it - but not as many as the years I spent listening to it every hour when airborne (until we finally got the actuals as well as the TAFs on the broadcast). Funny how HF propogation meant we could hear it fine half a world away when it had no relevance and yet unreadable in our own backyard Plus, always loved how the timeslot meant the one station you were listening for undoubtedly got cut-off on the repeat (which you needed due to it being garbled on the first run through).
Surprised it is still going actually, suspect the AT world use other means for met these days?
