Hi Haldun,

Very good.

re:

> : Slidell, LA)?

The Slidell radiosonde data is already being distributed in the IDD IDS|DDPLUS
datastream, so there is already a mechanism in place to get the data: request
the IDS|DDPLUS feed from an upstream IDD node and process the data upon receipt.

Question:

- do you have a special need to have the data sent directly from the upper
  air station to your facility?

Cheers,

Tom
