Hi Elmer,

re: where are the ISXT40 products coming from

OK.  I just verified that these products are being relayed in our IDD HDS
datafeed.

The 'notifyme' output shows three things:

- your LDM is receiving the products less than 2 seconds after they are
  first   inserted into an LDM queue for relay:

  Jan 19 12:19:51 - 20090119121949.647 == 51 - 49.647 ~= 1.353 seconds 
   
- the products are inserted about 45 seconds later than the time they
  represent:

  20090119121949.647 - 190415 == 49.647 - 4:15 ~= 45.397 seconds

- more than one product can be inserted into the originating LDM at the
  same time (the product time for the last two products in your list is
  identical).

Cheers,

Tom
