Alan,

If you want to get a list of NOAAport products that you are receiving then
a pqact entry similar to this will put zero length files in a directory.

WMO     ^(......) (....) (....)
        EXEC /bin/touch /npraid/noaaport/\1\2\3

I'm assuming that there is no header called NOAAPORT on the products. One
can use:

% ldmadmin watch 

to see what the actual products headers look like.  If there is a NOAAPORT
prefix then the entry would be like:

WMO     ^NOAAPORT\.(......) (....) (....) 
        EXEC /bin/touch /npraid/noaaport/\1\2\3

Remember white space outside the product ID's are tabs.
