Are you receiving the imagery by the IDD?  If yes, are they being decoded
by pqact.conf actions?

Have you made any other modifications to the LDM ingestion/decoding
of Unidata-Wisconsin imagery (IDD feed type MCIDAS or UNIWISC)?

Those things that "should have not impacted the LDM" typically turn
out to be gotchas :-(

OK.

>Do you have time to take a quick look at our system?

If you give us a login to your machine as the user 'ldm', I will take
a quick look at your setup for ingesting and decoding the Unidata-Wisconsin
images.  If this is OK, then the problem is something in your GARP
setup, and Chiz will have to help you.
