I'm sorry for having to be so general. Karli, You might want to try these request lines for data from pluto. request MCIDAS "LWTOA3 (1[0145].|2[01])" pluto.met.fsu.edu request WMO ".*" pluto.met.fsu.edu or if you don't need the model data, it is large request MCIDAS "LWTOA3 (1[0145].|2[01])" pluto.met.fsu.edu request IDS|DDPLUS ".*" pluto.met.fsu.edu Let me know if you want to receive certain models, I will probably be able to create an pattern for it.
