I have found it very useful because it gives the complete report and not just what the briefer decides to tell you. It is slow enough so I can take notes. It gives the weather observed at the airports (hourly sequence reports), the terminal forecast, and winds aloft forecast at three altitudes(plus or minus 4000 ft from the requested. It also gives the TWEB routes forecsts for which you have to know the numbers. To use the service call 202 347 3222 It will respond with a beep and give a voice message asking you to enter airport identifiers. You need a 12 push button dial. ABE is entered as 21 22 32 ## EWK is entered as 32 91 72 ## The first number corresponds to the button with the letter and the second number corresponds to the relative postion on the button. For winds aloft forecasts the altitude is in hundreds of feet. 60## equals 6 thousand feet.
