Default Radiosonde and Upper Wind Codes - which fields will always be present?

I am writing an application to decode Radiosonde data and though I've

know this I can reliably parse the data.

I believe it is present in the Federal Meteorological Handbook No 4,
though no copy exists on line.

What I mean is, will the TTAA/TTBB/PPBB/TTCC/TTDD and PPDD sections of
the report always be present and in the same sequence?

Thank you for your assistance.

Besides the FMH 3 (another poster) you really want to look at
