Subject: More radar data


  We use a pattern like ^(SD....) to capture radar data, and last night, 
up to 6Mb of radar data per hour (vs. the old 400K per hour) began coming 
in over the LDM data feed from Thelma. Does anyone know offhand the the 
headers of the MDR vs. RCM vs. NEXRAD data, so I can filter the data 
appropriately? Presumably the long-awaited appearance of NEXRAD data on 
NOAAPORT has begun in earnest...
