Hi Robb, > Gibert, > > It's channel 3 not 1. You will confuse users. > > http://www.nws.noaa.gov/noaaport/html/noaaport.shtml Uhhhh, you sure? Dan Vietor has always told me it that the NCEP/NWSTG channel was channel one (backed up on his site by http://weather.unisys.com/noaaport/), the Alden site (http://www.alden.com/noaaport.html) has it as channel 1, and everyone else I talk to refer to it as channel 1. GOES-E is channel 2. GOES-W is channel 3, and the underutilized what I call "Miscellaneous" channel is channel 4. Also, any luck with weather3.admin.niu.edu's LDM? It is still out.
