I don't see the connections between these statements. A variable containing frequency weights can vary between observations, in this instance within panels as well as between panels, so that is not a problem in itself.
Perhaps some particular procedures have more restricted assumptions, but you don't say what they are.

I am using unbalanced panel data which contains a frequency weight each year.
However the weight is not constant through time with the result that I cannot
weight the data using - [fweight = weight] - . I was just wondering if there is
a simple work around?
