John,
Around 5PM CST last night (23 UTC) we stopped receiving Nexrad Level II
data from you.
I didn't realize it until just now when one of my downstreams 
asked about it.
I'm unable to connect to either wisc.weather.purdue.edu
or wisc-alt.weather.purdue.edu via the ldm.
ldmping shows:
[ldm@whirlwind ~]$ ldmping wisc.weather.purdue.edu   
Nov 03 19:33:28      State    Elapsed Port   Remote_Host           rpc_stat
Nov 03 19:33:28 SVC_UNAVAIL   0.229212    0   wisc.weather.purdue.edu  RPC: 
Program not registered
Similar to wisc-alt.weather.purdue.edu.
Ldmd log has:

continuing through the current time.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Pete
