Hi all,
    After more than 7 years of faithful service the time is
near to retire striker.atmos.albany.edu. With the help of a 
Unidata equipment grant we have bought a new machine to
replace striker, which we unimaginatively named striker2.
Striker2 will better handle the load when lightning season
gets in full swing. It will also allow us to continue adding
downstream feed sites.
    If you request the NLDN feed from striker.atmos.albany.edu
please change the request to striker2.atmos.albany.edu.
We will leave striker up for now in case there are problems,
but we plan to shut it down this spring. I'll send out a
reminder once we have chosen a date. Let us know at
address@hidden if you have problems with striker2.
Thanks
David
