Sal,

 

Information Bravo was the current ATIS code for the airport. When a new weather/runway update occurs, we switch to a new ATIS code. Normally we start at Alpha and work our way down.

 

To obtain the ATIS in Squawkbox, right click on the controller you wish to obtain the ATIS for and click "Request Controller Info".

If you are looking for just metar information. (In SB3) Just type .metar ICAOHERE. For example. .metar KATL or .metar EGLL
