ACARS is Aircraft Communications Addressing & Reporting System
ATIS (received via ACARS is Automated Terminal Information System) This is the runway in use wind direction speed radio frequency to use..
ATC is Air Traffic Control (Clearances ect...)
Weather is self explanatory Usually consisting of TAF (Terminal Area Forcast) and METAR(METeorological Aerodrome Report)

As something of a newbie here, with a pair of 33s that I'm sloooowly restoring with Wayne's assistance,  can you elaborate a bit or two on ACARS, ATC, ATIS, and WEATHER?  What are they, and how does one receive them?
