Actually, the latency appears to have hit about 3400 seconds (see <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?CONDUIT+psnldm.balloonfacility.org>). Because this is close to the default one hour maximum latency and because the reported latency is a sampling, it's possible that data-products were rejected near the end of the arrival intervals for arriving too late. A way to prevent this is to specify a maximum allowable latency that's greater than one hour via the "-m" option of ldmadmin(1). Another possibility is that the missing-data products were never in the data stream. I'll ask our GEMPAK guru to contact you to see if we received the missing data-products (in which case they were in the data stream). Because your latency increases during the arrival period, can you increase your bandwidth and/or decrease the number of data-products that you request?
