Hi Jimmy, 

I have discovered that your feed is indeed one of our machines.  Tom and
I looked further at your problem and we found that the problem may in
fact be with our server, thelma.ucar.edu.  My previous message did not
address this.

As a test, we've temporarily decided to switch your feed to another
server.  In your ldmd.conf file, change the request line to instead
request from motherlode.ucar.edu.  

Please let us know if this improves data reception for you.  If so,
we'll keep it this way for a while.  The plan is to eventually upgrade
thelma, and when we do so we'll switch you back.

Anne
