I have made the addition to the sitelist. Thanks for the info.

That should be able to keep up :)...just noticed some high latency currently 
from the charts, but understand getting things working 
"in parallel"....feeds set up as you set up the new hardware.

Once SUNY-Albany adds you to their allows, all should be good for the NLDN 
feed. We have you allowed for the HRRR via idd.unidata.ucar.edu
on the NGRID feedtype.
