Pat, Please configure your LDM to send rtstats so that address@hidden and you can better analyze your reception. Your ldmd.conf should contain the line: exec "rtstats -h rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu" It appears that you are requesting HDS as well as IDS|DDPLUS (aka WMO) from stokes.metr.ou.edu which is receiving the data just fine: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?HDS+stokes.metr.ou.edu Your mailed in stats show that both HDS and IDS|DDPLUS are running at the maximum latency and therefore losing data, so the problem would most likely be with your university. I would guess that you either need to use separate request lines, or that your campus is limiting the amount of data you can receive (which we have discovered at many sites where the campus computing facilities indescriminately limited throughput). address@hidden can help diagnose your problem further when you are providing rtstats.
