Gilbert,

For a product with WMO header that looks like:

PGWE46 KWNS 161245

You could use a pqact.conf line such as:

HRS     ^(PGWE46) KWNS ([0-3][0-9][0-2][0-9][0-6][0-9])
        FILE    -close  data/redbook/\1_\2.rb

In the above, the \1 matches the first set of parentheses (eg: PGWE46)
and \2 matches the second set of parentheses (which is the DDHHNN string).
