Help with weather scripts
I want the local weather and/or forecast to be announced when I execute a DTMF sequence. I have found a lot for the BBB, but I have ACID. Will the BBB scripts work? Is there anyone who has it on ACID and documentation on doing so anywhere? http://w0anm.com/blog/?p=519 that is where I found the weather scripts for BBB 73 Skyler KDØWHB

There are many ways of doing what you are after. Here is one way that is simple for the requirements you stated. If you search the NWS site, you will find they have audio and text statements of the forecast for your zone/area as a rss feed. Sorry I don't have a link to give you at this time. I'm sure you can find it. One can simply download the forecast script or audio for your zone/area via a script with curl activated from the scheduler or cron. You need to find your zone at nws first. Using text to speech or just the audio play via "localplay /dir/data.mp3" assigned to a command to play that file that is updated about 3-6 hours or so. So schedule updates accordingly. If playing a mp3 is to much for your system, you can install and use lame to convert the file to other formats. Don't forget about paths and permissions to your scripts and files. I'm sure there are many other ways to do it but this is the simplest even if it is not the one I use. Perhaps someone will chime in with a simpler method. ...mike/kb8jnm

I found MP3 files, but only for select areas, and it claims to be experimental. On Sun, Apr 5, 2015 at 9:32 AM, <mike@midnighteng.com> wrote:

Our needs are a little different. We have three repeaters in our network and as an ECOMM repeater and in an area prone to harsh weather with little notice (the mountains and deserts of So. Calif.) we want the weather to announce locally only. Mountain weather should not go out over Desert and Metro; Desert should not go out over the Mountain system. One can use a free text-to-speech app to read the text file OTA. R.

Wayne, there is a difference from localplay and playback. localplay is just that, only on the local node. Skyler, here is a old address where I use to get mine. www. erh. noaa.gov /er/pbz/crsaudio/ The pbz is a zone for Pittsburgh area. You only need to replace those 3 letters with your zone i.d. Copy the link for your desired output and script it with curl/download. ...mike/kb8jnm

Thank you mike. Apparantly, there is no audio for my area. I did http://www.weather.gov/bou/ (bou stands for the denver/boulder area) and it does not have an area with the mp3's like pbz does On Sun, Apr 5, 2015 at 5:56 PM, <mike@midnighteng.com> wrote:

The pbz is a zone for Pittsburgh area. You only need to replace those 3 letters with your zone i.d. Copy the link for your desired output and script it with curl/download.

Our needs are a little different. We have three repeaters in our network and as an ECOMM repeater and in an area prone to harsh weather with little notice (the mountains and deserts of So. Calif.) we want the weather to announce locally only. Mountain weather should not go out over Desert and Metro; Desert should not go out over the Mountain system. One can use a free text-to-speech app to read the text file OTA.

Sorry I don't have a link to give you at this time. I'm sure you can find it.
One can simply download the forecast script or audio for your zone/area via a script with curl activated from the scheduler or cron. You need to find your zone at nws first.
Using text to speech or just the audio play via "localplay /dir/data.mp3" assigned to a command to play that file that is updated about 3-6 hours or so. So schedule updates accordingly.
If playing a mp3 is to much for your system, you can install and use lame to convert the file to other formats.
Don't forget about paths and permissions to your scripts and files.
I'm sure there are many other ways to do it but this is the simplest even if it is not the one I use. Perhaps someone will chime in with a simpler method.

Sorry Skyler, My info is pretty old. In any case not all offices are the same. Be a good mouse and keep heading for the cheese ! You will probably need to scour the nws web for the local forecast as text and use a text to speech generator. You might have the need to learn XML file parsing to clean a rss file up for reading. If you have any contacts with local nws, they might be of help pointing you to local resources that might save some work. ...mike/kbjnm

It appears the personal version is no longer available for Linux. There is also a licensing issue for us, since the audio is being played back over the radio, it violates their "no third party" clause. The personal version is for local pc playout to a soundcard. To do TTS with file save for later/repeated playback and 3rd party use legally, it is going to run $340 for 1 license. I wish there was a better solution. Supposedly some of the festival voices have gotten better. Unless there has been a special dispensation from cepststral for amateur radio use, it's going to be hard to justify the expense. I didn't know about the licensing thing until I recently tried to get the latest version of Cepstral Linux and noticed it didn't function the same way as the version the scripts want. I read on cepstrals site about how the older Linux personal version was being used improperly (people would use the personal version in commercial phone systems to save a few bucks) and that's why it's no longer available. 73 Don W9DRR
I have a version for ACID distribution, but may need further testing. It's base on Google's TTS engine. Contact me off list if you want to help me further test. Chris w0anm On Sun, Apr 5, 2015 at 8:20 AM, Skyler F <electricity440@gmail.com> wrote:

that is where I found the weather scripts for BBB

Chris, I am not sure if the rules are the same now or not. Google TTS required a developer account and limited your use of the service to "length" "instance per day" and "instances per month". But perhaps things have changed. Last I used it it was getting stricter not more lax. But a service that you pipe the text to and get back a audio file will work and I'm sure there are plenty of them. Still, You will need to locate a file from nws that is plain text and hopefully without abbreviation. Otherwise, you will need to convert those to normal spoken text before you pipe it to tts. ex: mcl = mostly cloudy w:e5 = wind is east at 5 miles per hour sct = scattered (just supposed examples as I know the aviation reports come that way) In any case, just a heads up on what your up against. ...mike/kbjnm

These script have already been developed by me and I take into consideration abbreviations, and miss pronounced words such and "wind" as "there is high wind alert now" vs "I wind my clock". And your right, it's a lot of work and programming to get it right. I have been using google tts without out any issues and never and any issues pulling data from google translate web site. In addition to wx alerts, it also can work on wx forecasts, and underground wx reports. These script have been running on the BBB Allstar release without any issues. I do have an acid RPM, but there are some unique issues with dependencies and old core-bin utilities that Centos is using. I have gotten around these issues. I just need to modify the RPM package for 32-bin and 64-bit architectures as I use a later version of "sort" that is recompiled executable. 73, Chris w0anm On Mon, Apr 6, 2015 at 11:47 AM, <mike@midnighteng.com> wrote:
