John, First..DO NOT do this: request UNIDATA "/p(...)FFC" sml0.eas.gatech.edu request NLDN "/p(...)FFC" sml0.eas.gatech.edu Keep the ".*" for UNIDATA and NLDN or you will get nothing, albeit that is what your getting now, but that will change :) And for the NEXRAD feed use: request NNEXRAD "/p...(FFC)" sml0.eas.gatech.edu I am looking at your pqact.conf now to see what is going on there. Keep in mind that "spaces" are not allowed in pqact.conf..you MUST use "tabs". Plz send a copy of your pqact.conf file back to me.
