Hi Brian, One other thing that might be helpful, if your ldm is reporting to rtstats then you can look up how much data you're getting in from each of the feeds. Sometimes this is useful especially if things need to be troubleshot. In order to do that a few things need to be in place: 1. In the ldmd.config you must have an uncommented line that says: EXEC "rtstats -h rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu" 2. Look in the registry.xml file for the "hostname" 3. Go to this website: https://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/rtstats/ and find select "Statistics by Host" under the tab at the top labeled "Real-Time IDD Statistics", find your hostname to see your machines stats. The "volume" and "products" plots are usually pretty useful. As well as the cumulative summaries. If your exec line is commented out in the ldmd.config, you can uncomment it and then restart the ldm to begin reporting to rtstats. Also, as far as the redbook data, it sounds like they are sent in through the NWSTG chanell of NOAAPort. Hope any of this is helpful.
