Error while running obsproc.exe

Hello WRFDA Community,
I am currently working on a 3DVAR data assimilation experiment for Hurricane Milton using WRFDA v4.6. I have successfully run real.exe using ERA5 and GFS data to generate the wrfinput_d01 and wrfbdy_d01 files.

However, I’m encountering issues during the obsproc.exe step. I’m using surface observation files in Little_R format downloaded from the NCEP. obsproc.exe fails to generate the ob.ascii or little_r_input files. Below I have attached namelist.obsproc and ERROR while doing obsproc.exe step. Also let me know the comple procedure I am confused. Thanks in advance

ERROR:
==> obs_num= 1 INVALID WMO CODE: platform= ID=
Troubles with first line RPID: UQXA2 UTQUIGVI Surface marine CMAN (BUFR)
Starting to READ a new report.
142418 1 ID= Name= Surface marine CMAN (BUFR) Platform= FM-18 BUOY
