Hi Paul,

Here are actions we use for the hourly and 6-minute wind and RASS profiler data:

# Profiler data from FSL in NetCDF format
FSL2    ^FSL\.NetCDF\.NOAAnet\.windprofiler\.(01hr|06min)\.(.*)
        FILE    -overwrite
        data/fsl/\1/\2.nc
# Profiler RASS data from FSL in NetCDF format
FSL2    ^FSL\.NetCDF\.NOAAnet\.(RASS)\.(01hr|06min)\.(.*)
        FILE    -overwrite
        data/fsl/\1/\2/\3.nc

By the way, the LDM 'notifyme' utility is very useful for figuring things like
this out:

<as 'ldm'>
notifyme -vxl- -f FSL2 -o 3600

Review the output to see what the FSL2 product headers look like and then
fashion an Extended Regular Expression (ERE) to use in a test:

notifyme -vxl- -f FSL2 -o 3600 -p 
'^FSL\.NetCDF\.NOAAnet\.(RASS)\.(01hr|06min)\.(.*)'

Tweek the ERE until you get the output you want, and then use the pattern ** 
without
the single quotes ** in your pqact.conf action.

Cheers,

Tom
