I took the liberty of logging in on vortex. I changed the pqact.conf entry for pnga2area to log verbosely to mcidas.log. I have been watching this log file and I only see the CIMSS products getting processed at all! I see no invocations for pnga2area for the other images although I have seen two of them hit your machine. I am, to say the least, mystified right now since I don't even see an error in the LDM log file, ldmd.log. >I have been using Mcidas for imagery viewing and soundings so I >wasn't really paying attention to all the things I'm missing.

I am sure that there is some sort of a systematic problem, but I just don't know what it is right now! My suspicions are returning to ROUTE.SYS. I want to delete and recreate this to test out whether it is the cause of your problems. Do I have your permission to do this? Tom
