Hi Tom,

Thanks.  There is always a lot of things going on, but we should have
responded sooner.

OK.  It is possible that the LDM ALLOWs were changed on this machine.
We don't know why this would happen, but it seems possible.

Question:

- is your feed REQUEST being denied?

  I would check your LDM log files to see if any light can be shed
  on why data is not flowing to you.

re:
> So I assume at that time it was a single-source feed (like NLDN).

Yes, it was.

re:
> But now
> it looks like it's a relayed feed like UNIWISC, so I can get it from
> another source?

Yes, GEM can be relayed, and there are several top level IDD relays
that are providing access to the data.  I would suggest you see
if the IDD relay at Penn State has an ALLOW for you:

<as 'ldm'>
notifyme -vl- -f GEM -h idd.meteo.psu.edu

If you are ALLOWed to REQUEST the feed, you should see a line like:

Feb 16 18:50:57 notifyme[14977] NOTE: NOTIFYME(idd.meteo.psu.edu): OK

in your 'notifyme' output.  If this is the case, I recommend adding
an additional, redundant REQUEST for the data to idd.meteo.psu.edu.

Cheers,

Tom
