If you want to really cut down the amount of data being sent to
Costa Rica, The primarily useful data for them will be:
DDPLUS  ^(S|U).*
HRS     ^H.[I-P].*
MCIDAS  ^LWTOA3 (1[45]|21)'

Since most of the text products/forecasts don't cover their area,
the main interest in DDPLUS is probably surface and upperair observations-
hence ^(S|U). That will obtain all metar/synoptic/ship/buoy surface obs
and upperair reports. Later, they may want to add the Atlantic/carribean 
hurricane bulletins if bandwidth allows.

The HRS model grids that would be most useful would be the global AVN 
thinned grids that provide 0-72 hours. The may want to add the MRF 3.5-10 
day later. 

The LWTOA3 14x is goes-8 vis, 15x is goes-8 IR and 21x is the goes-8 wv.
