Hi Bonnie,

???. Do you mean NOAAPort ingest software?

I just used the LDM 'notifyme' utility to see which datastream contains 
products that have
'ISXT40' in their product IDs:

/local/ldm% notifyme -vxl- -f ANY -p ISXT40 -o 1000000

^COct 20 18:00:21 notifyme[9733] NOTE: exiting

If these are the products you are looking for, they can be found in the HDS 
datastream that is
being created on machines running Unidata's NOAAPort ingest software (the code 
that SSEC is using).

A simple action for an LDM pattern-action file that would write the products 
into individual
disk files is:

HDS   ^(ISTX40) (KBOU) (..)(..)(..)
    FILE data/bufr/\1_\2_(\3:yyyy)(\3:mm)\3.\4\5

NB:  certain white space in LDM pattern-action files are tabs, not spaces:

- white space between HDS and ^(ISTX40) is a tab
- white space before FILE is a tab
- first white space after FILE is a tab

If I am correct in my interpretation of the last field in the product 
identifier being DDHHMM,
this pattern will create files whose names look like:

~ldm/data/bufr/ISTX40_KBOU_20081020.1645
~ldm/data/bufr/ISTX40_KBOU_20081020.1615
etc.

No worries.

Cheers,
