Hi Robb,
Indeed they are, but suddenly, the TTAA00 appeared on the second line,
when it should appear on the first with the AFOS PIL. The reason for the
interest? A faster way to get weather warnings to me and a data backup
in case Gateway goes down for a system swap, hardware failure, etc. It
usually happens when I need it the most. I had a test NWWS feed to try it
out, but if all goes well later this week I will switch to a true AFOS
feed from the NWS LOT office in Romeoville/Chicago. They're using LDM
5.0.7B (beta) on a Linux 5.1 OS. Maybe that will help. I dunno. I'd just
like to see the TAAOO on the first line so that my headers will work
again! Apparently, the site which gave me a test feed for a little while
upgraded from 5.0 to 5.0.6, and that caused the problem. Now, as I await
the NWS to clear port 388 so I can get to the feed, I'm trying to figure
out what I can do to get the dates in lower case...to match the entries I
have for NOAAport.
Does this make sense?
Gilbert
