Is it always the same stations?  If you can give me some examples,
I can see if we received them.  Does it always seem to happen
(the gap) at the same time each day?

The only thing I can think of is if there was network congestion that
slowed down your data reception to the point where data was lost.
Are there any messages in your LDM logs about reclasses or broken
connections?
