    	Hi Jack, 
You may well find that it is actually your callsign that is causing the problem as the WXSRV-AU is within the allowable AX25 specifications. The 7 letter callsign for foundation licenses breaks the AX25 protocol and in the process  a lot of iGates, digipeaters etc.

Does anyone know of any shorter alias callsigns or similar for WXSVR-AU?
My FT2D can only send messages to callsigns six characters or less (and an SSID in the usual number format up to 15). The long callsign of the weather bot makes it inaccessible to a large number of mobile/portable RF (at least over AX.25) users, severely limiting its use for what is probably the demographic of amateurs that would find it most helpful.
Thanks all,Jack Schultz VK3FJTS
