Robert,

I guess that I didn't have a full understanding of your configuration, it
appears your configuration is in accordance with the IDD policy. 

It looks like your site's entires are back on the topo charts.

cirrus.al.noaa.gov 0.1 Minutes
      psnldm.nsbf.nasa.gov 3.5 Minutes
        wxmcidas.nsbf.nasa.gov 3.5 Minutes
