Hi Patrick, 

Being that it is at Fort Campbell I suspect it is a DOD radar..the NEXRAD 
network consists od NWS, FAA, and DOD radars. Some of the FAA and DOD do not 
have network capability of transmitting the level II so the prod generation is 
done locally and then distributed. NCDC may have archived level II from KHPX, 
but for real time..I do not think it is available.

Cheers,

Jeff
