Hi James,
Yes, these models run at different resolutions and update times.
Please reference this document from NCEP:
http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/etagrids/
regarding model grid resolution for the ETA and the RUC
and:
http://sgi62.wwb.noaa.gov:8080/research/mrf.html
for the MRF
or visit this top link and you will find documenattion regarding all of
NCEP's model output:
http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/modelinfo/index.html
This may also be helpful:
It is a snip from our pqact.conf files showing how we seperate out the
differing resolutions of model runs..

so for example:
The ETA designated with a "Q" is grid 211 at 80km resolution.
Please feel free to write back if this does not answer your questions to
your satisfaction.
Thank you for using the COMET case study library,
