RE: 20041203: NCEP ETA models on IDD

Ken,

We deliver what gets ingested in NOAAPORT channels 1->4...via the HRS/HDS
feed.

We are constantly evaluating the needs and desires of our community to
determine what products are delivered via the CONDUIT (hi-res model
output) feed. If you are attending the AMS, the CONDUIT group is meeting
on Tuesday and that is the forum to bring forth your desires..or if not
attending, or cannot attend that meeting, we can act as your proxy and
represent your wishes.


I am cc'ing Dr. Chiswell is who is our local CONDUIT expert, and  will be
attending the CONDUIT meeting at the AMS.

Cheers,

Jeff
