RE: Data

Hi Brian,

There appears to be some confusion here.

We at Unidata do not provide AFOS, AFOS is distributed via a point to
point contact with the NWS-if that still exists.

FOS data or the WMO feedtype, is similar to AFOS but distributed via
NOAAport-our means of data access-

AFOS has never been distributed via the IDD.

You are getting the UNIDATA feedtype from amelia which covers
PPS
DDS
HDS 
IDS  and 
MCIDAS

The first four make up the WMO feedtype.

What actual data do you want that you are not getting?

Thank you,

-Jeff
