Giovanni,

Sorry about that. I found that the date/time in some of the WMO headers on the 
QBUF products
in the data stream had incorrect times (up to 6 hours off), so using the LDM's 
FILE
with dates from the WMO header was leading to bad plots. Instead, I had a test 
directory
to use the system time for filing the products using the strftime() 
replacements for
the ties which the products were inserted into the LDM. I just need to remove 
the _test
entry for the distribution and sync up the pqact entry to avoid the WMO header 
fields.
