Hi Brian,

No worries.

OK.

All feeds _except_ NLDN, WSI, PCWS, GEM, and NOGAPS are available from
idd.cise-nsf.gov.

Yes.

I don't know how you are requesting the various feeds, but I recommend
that you combine several into individual request lines.  For instance:

request WMO ".*" idd.cise-nsf.gov
request FNEXRAD|FSL2|UNIWISC ".*" idd.cise-nsf.gov
request NNEXRAD ".*" idd.cise-nsf.gov
request CONDUIT ".*" idd.cise-nsf.gov             <- your CONDUIT feed may be 
split
                                                     several ways; keep the 
split!

The objectives in creating request lines are:

- have as few request lines as possible
- have as many request lines as are needed to keep latencies at a minimum

NOTES on compound feedtypes:

DDS|PPS    == DDPLUS
IDS|DDPLUS == IDS|DDS|PPS
WMO        == IDS|DDPLUS|HDS
UNIDATA    == UNIWISC|WMO             (and UNIWISC is the recommended name for 
MCIDAS)

> thanks again.

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
