Default AWS Decode

Just wondering if someone could assist in decoding the AWS reading correctly
as there are some groups I'm not sure of

AAXX 17064
03769 17015 /2106 10104 20104 30106 40189 53006 69902 720// 90550 333 20097
3/009 55035 55300 20075 70044 88/01=

After the 333 group

20097 = Min air temp 9.7'c ?
3/009 = State of ground not reported, Grass Min 0.9'c ?
55035 ?
55300 ?
20075 ?

Regards

Richard

Default AWS Decode

Think it's Wm-2 to a 1 decimal precision, but an average over the preceding
hour, which makes it kJ/3.6, or ignoring the implied decimal, DJ/3.6.

20075: This follows, and is a supplementary group to the 553-- group.
The 2 denotes global solar radiation and the units for this are KJ/m2

Yes the values reported today seem to be consistent with these units

Google for "synop decode", the information is there as I was looking at
it when Jonathon(?) was having fun with odd Russia number groups.
