INTRODUCTION
Weatherman consists of a synthesised HF receiver, a powerful computer and a high
contrast display. It forms a dedicated radio teletype (RTTY) receiver configured to
record and display the range of weather reports and weather forecasts broadcast
by the German national weather agency Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD) based in
Hamburg.
The coverage is, clockwise from the Eastern Mediterranean, via Gibraltar and the
English Channel, to the North Atlantic and Baltic Seas. There is a daily schedule
of times, frequencies and areas and Weatherman can easily be set up to receive all
this information, or to record only the areas and data to suit the user’s requirements.
The receiver is simple to use with all instructions clearly displayed on the screen.
A compact stubby antenna is supplied with the receiver.
Whilst the receiver is designed to operate from the vessels 12 volt system it can be
powered by domestic mains using a regulated 12 volt power supply (not a battery
charger). When used in a domestic environment it is important that the negative
supply wire is connected to a good ground (e.g. mains ground or a suitable water
pipe) to avoid interference.
DWD TRANSMISSIONS
DWD broadcasts on several frequencies simultaneously. This is to cope with the
varying radio propagation and reception conditions, which are dictated by time of
day and the distance from the Hamburg transmitters.
Weatherman can receive the following frequencies:
DDK9 on 10.1008 MHZ
DDH7 on 7.646 MHZ PROGRAM 1 in ENGLISH LANGUAGE
DKK2 on 4.583 MHZ
DDH9 on 11.039 MHZ PROGRAM 2 in GERMAN LANGUAGE
The most appropriate frequency can easily be resolved by reference to Weatherman’s
on-screen radio spectrum analyser, which is more fully explained in the section
entitled SELECTING THE BEST FREQUENCY.

DWD sends out - Storm Warnings
Weather reports
Synoptic weather outlooks
Detailed 2 day - 3 day - 5 day prognosis
Broadly speaking the areas covered are:
North and Baltic Seas
Pentlands and SW Greenland
Atlantic and English Channel
Mediterranean
For some transmissions these areas overlap.
Each large area is sub-divided into smaller more useful sub-areas. The latitude/
longitude datum point (area centre) for each of these is given in the section
entitled Hamburg Weather Forecast Areas and Co-ordinates.
When you are familiar with how Weatherman operates, you will appreciate that
this service gives you plenty of weather information for all times and for all quoted
areas.
INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
Many types of electrical apparatus emit interference and it is important that the
antenna be well clear of such interference. Troublesome items are alternators,
ignition coils, motors, strip lights, inverters etc. Select a position as far from likely
sources of interference as is practical and mount the aerial using the flange on the
base. Ensure that the antenna is at least 30cms from other metal structures that
are parallel to it.
Whilst the antenna should be mounted as high as possible for best results, deck
level mounting has proved to be satisfactory in most cases.
A pushpit mounting bracket is available from your chandler, or Nasa Marine
spares department. The bracket permits the antenna to be mounted to any 25mm
diameter horizontal rail.
Run the antenna lead back to the receiver. The cable can be shortened or
lengthened using standard 75 ohm coaxial cable.

3
Take great care when making connections. Power for the active antenna is
supplied by the coax so all joints should be soldered and properly insulated.
Alternatively a 7 metre extension cable is available from your chandler. (Or Nasa
Marine spares department).
An insulated backstay can be used as an alternative to the active antenna.
To connect to the backstay run a 75 ohm coaxial cable from the receiver to the
backstay. Include a capacitor (0.1mFd) in series with the inner conductor to block
the DC supply from the receiver.
INSTALLING THE DISPLAY
The Weatherman receiver is not waterproof and should only be cabin mounted.
Select a convenient position for the display on a panel or bulkhead. The site must
be flat and the cavity behind the panel must remain dry at all times. Cut a hole in
the panel 103mm by 143mm wide. (The cut out in the cardboard packaging can
be used as a template).
Unscrew the wingnut from the rear of the receiver and take off the mounting
clamp. Fit the ‘O’ ring in the groove on the rear and place the unit in the hole in
the panel. Refit the mounting clamp and replace and finger tighten the wing nut.
Plug the power cable into the socket on the rear of the receiver and connect to 12
volts. (The red wire to positive and the wire with the black stripe to negative. The
unit is protected against reverse polarity.) Push the moulded antenna plug into its
socket on the rear of the receiver.
USING THE WEATHERMAN
Switching on power to the Weatherman performs an internal reset, turns on the
backlight and goes to the Standby screen.
From this screen: -
i/ The backlight can be switched on and off (NB back lighting will go off
automatically after five minutes to conserve power)
ii/ The signal spectrum screen can be accessed.
Iii/ The program screen can be accessed.
Iv/ Scrolling through memory is available.

4
v/ The display contrast can be adjusted.
vi/ The receiver frequency can be changed.
To make a choice follow the instructions on the screen.
Where a key name is shown followed by ‘+’ and a second key name (for
example a CTRL + UP) first press and hold CTRL and then press the second
key. Releasing CTRL will store the setting.
PROGRAMMING
From the Standby screen select the Programming screen (Long press on
ENTER key).
The Weatherman allows the following groups of messages to be recorded
or ignored.
Reports - North & Baltic Sea
F’cast - North & Baltic Sea
F’cast - North Sea (5 day)
F’cast - West European Atlantic (2 day)
F’cast - Baltic Sea (5 day)
F’cast - Mediterranean
F’cast - Pentlands - SW Greenland
Reports - Storm Warnings (all areas)
Follow the instructions on the screen to select the desired messages to be
recorded. This screen also allows old messages to be wiped from the
memory. Wiping the memory does not affect the message programming. Message
‘ident’ codes, which accompany the transmissons are made up as
follows.

EXTRA DATA DISPLAYED ON YOUR WEATHERMAN SCREEN
CQ - CQ - CQ is the international code for “Calling all stations.” It means
that all parties are permitted to monitor and use the transmissions which
follow.
RYRYRYR......... is the conventional signal broadcast whilst the transmitter
is ‘at rest’ between messages.
GROUPS of 5 figures with a space in between. This is the coded, abbreviated
form of data being sent to and fro between the transmitter and weather
ships and other reporting stations. It cannot be decoded by Weatherman so
is ignored.
SELECTING THE BEST FREQUENCY
Weatherman’s signal spectrum analyser is a graphic way of determining
which is the best frequency for the present time and location.
From the Standby screen select the signal spectrum screen. The frequency
is shown in the centre of the screen and the area at each side the spectrum
of the signal being received.
Frequency efficiency depends on location and time of day and is indicated
by the heights of the lower and upper sideband pixel columns on either
side of the nominal frequency. The taller and more consistent these columns,
the greater the signal strength and absence of interference. See below.
As a rule of thumb, the lower frequencies are better when you are closer to
Hamburg and at night, or in the early morning.
DDK9 is usually the best ‘all round’ channel and DDK2 or DDH7 when
you are a long way from the transmitting station during daylight.
No signal present, background level, no reception,
Weak signal above background level, Few errors,
Weak signal near background level, many errors,
Strong signal, Good copy, no errors,

7
NB Whilst DDH9 is substantially in German language much of it can be
understood by English speakers.
In practice the receiver can be left on the spectrum screen. Recording will
take place as normal and frequency selection can be made at any time to
select the best signal. Press CTRL to change frequency. A long press of the
ENTER key will return to the Standby screen.
VIEWING STORED MESSAGES
Pressing either the UP of DOWN keys will take you to the beginning of the last
stored message. Pressing DOWN will allow you to read through that message.
Pressing UP will scroll back into the previous message. Hold the UP key and the
display will scroll back and stop at the beginning of the previous message. A
simple press on CTRL will return to the previous screen. ie Standby of Spectrum.
From the standby or the spectrum screen the unit can be fixed to record any
message (regardless of the program settings) by pressing the up & down keys
simultaneously.
