John,

In regards to your getting a feed of NEXRAD data from UCSD:

I was under the impression that UND had access to a NOAAPORT reception
system.  I got this impression from our program manager, Ben Domenico,
who recently met with Leon Osborne at the Regional Climate Center.

Are you in a different location than Leon, or is there no connection
between the Climate Center and your department?  If you do have a
relationship you would probably do better to feed the data from that
machine than get the data long haul from Scripps.

Just curious...
