I asked Robin yesterday but haven't heard back.

Robin mostly relies on upstream sources, which is
as it should be.  There is a nontrivial turnover
in the data, so you definitely don't want a static
dataset.  I don't think we have a "bug" in "the" 
data but rather in the /process/ that collects data.

ATIS/AWOS/HIWAS/TWEB/etc. frequencies *are* available 
from authoritative sources;  the data just has to get 
integrated.  There are about ten different ways the
process could go off the rails.  Whatever it is, it's 
fixable;  it's just work.  IMHO it's not worth speculating 
about details until we hear from Robin.
