Hi Brad, Quick bit of info: If the product category is set to be '1', the product feedtype is set to 'feedtext'; if the product category is set to '101', the product feed type is set to be feednonascii (reference process_prod.c lines 192 and 196). So your surmise of the second of the following being assigned to a different LDM feedtype is correct: feedtext type: Jan 20 05:28:10 cpsbn1-hpcn readnoaaport[29052] NOTE: FXUS10 KWNH 200528 /pPMDHMD inserted [cat 1 type 4 ccb 2/0 seq 68910095 size 4791] feednonascii type: Jan 20 15:14:50 cpsbn1-hpcn readnoaaport[29052] NOTE: FXUS10 KWNH 201514 /pPMDHMD inserted [cat 101 type 4 ccb 2/0 seq 69705248 size 2236] I am currently waiting to receive a product that is classified with 'cat 101' so I can understand why it was thus classified.
