Hi David,

re:

You are evidently used to support that is somewhat slower than Unidata's :-)

re:

Yes, we are willing to feed you the Level II data for KLWX.

We would prefer that sites that forward AND reverse DNS exist for
sites we are feed.  The reason is so that the normal LDM ALLOW mechanisms
work without adjustment on our end (i.e., our ALLOW entries are typically 
made by fully-qualified hostname).  Please check with your system administrator
to see if this can be done.  Please check to see if this can be done.
Also, we would request that your machine report real time statistics back
to us.  This would require that outbound port 388 traffic be allowed
at your site.


Cheers,

Tom
