Gilbert,

>All seems to be well, except wind profiler data isn't being generated.

Was it before?  The installation of 7.70 done on your system had nothing
to do with:

o change of the routing table; the existing one was not updated
o change of the ldm-mcidas decoders

>In the LDM logs, I am getting error messages about how "routing entry is

I took a quick look and saw that the entries for the products U2 (hourly
summary FSL wind profiler) and U6 (6-minute FSL wind profiler) looked
_very_ old (mentioned PROFILER.CDF which was dropped from the Unidata-Wisconsin
stream awhile ago).

I clipped the U2 and U6 entries out of ~mcidas/data/DROUTE.BAT and reran
them.  Your routing table was updated by these invocations.  Now all we
have to do is wait and see if the profiler files get created.
