Hi Neal,

re:

GOES-11 was replaced as GOES-West by GOES-15 some time ago.  GOES-15
products replaced those from GOES-11 at the time of the change.

This fits with the change in NOAA's GOES-West operations.

Your REQUEST for UNIWISC image is correct.  I am guessing that you are
using GEMPAK and its configuration for NMAP2 needs to be updated
to use the GOES-15 images instead of GOES-11.  Please let us know
if your situation is different.

re:
> Thanks,

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
