Chad, Can you shed some light on the decision to put products into NOAAport text or NOAAport binary for the MRF MOS products? I believe all the MRF MOS products should be in the text stream. Also, please don't forget to add the new pqing.c code I sent a week ago.

The reason I ask is that there seem to be some products coming in over the HDS feed that I think should be on the IDS|DDPLUS feed, namely (and there are probably others) the MRF MOS products (FOX.) Last night I set up a test where I fed two machines here at WITI from the iita.rap machine. One machine requested "WMO" and the other one "IDS|DDPLUS". The machine that requested WMO got 115 MRF MOS products (FOX., FOAK) and the one that requested "IDS|DDPLUS" got 74. Looking at the feedstats, both machines got the identical number of products and bytes from the IDS|DDPLUS feeds, thus I have to conclude that the additional products came over the HDS feed. Why? I don't need all the grid products at this time so I would rather just feed the IDS|DDPLUS data.
