20000128: Using /p tag

Steve,

Your ldmConnect message from pqact could be caused by the decoders
package program ldmConnect not being installed in your ~ldm/bin
directory- which is likely when you installed your new ldm version
and moved the runtime link so that bin/ now points to ldm-5.0.9/bin/
rather than ldm-5.0.8/bin/. We generally put decoders external to the 
ldm program in the ~ldm/decoders directory so that they don't have to be 
moved whenever the LDM is upgraded.

Your previous message said that you did see pil tages with -f DDPLUS.
Since DDS|PPS is the same as DDPLUS, then using DDPLUS will match
on the bitwise comparison of either PPS or DDS. The Creating
AFOS-like pil tags" message would be emitted in verbose logging as I mentioned
before, so you would want to invoke your pqing with the -v option to test this.

My understanding is that you are ingesting off the Alden Satellite feed.
Is pqing running with -f DDPLUS or -f PPS? Your previous message stated:
>but DDPLUS is working:
