A very regular service transmitting [[RTTY]] meteorological information is the ''German Weather Service'' [http://www.dwd.de (Deutscher Wetterdienst or DWD)]. The DWD regularly transmit two programs on various LF and HF frequencies in standard RTTY (ITA-2 alphabet). The list of callsigns, frequencies, baudrates and shifts (current May 2010) are as follows: <sup>[1]</sup>
