Steve, 
Our data has been NOAAPORT instead of FOS since December 1998.
We no longer have individual PPS, DDS and IDS type feeds as a
result- instead the NOAAPORT nwstg channel is smorgasboarded
into 2 streams DDPLUS|IDS and HRS for the time being.

In the work I have been persuing, I do not use pqing since 
it was never designed to handle things like GINI images anyway-
so I would like to get away from the old FOS feedtypes and
move to better IDs that reflect more of the information carried
in the NOAAPORT headers.
