John, I found your downstream LDM that's receiving NEXRAD2 via the command "fgrep NEXRAD2 `ls -rt ldmd.log*`". Putting that downstream LDM into verbose logging mode resulting in the following: $ fgrep '[4402]' `ls -rt ldmd.log*` ... ldmd.log:Dec 23 17:09:01 adiabat idd.unidata.ucar.edu[4402] INFO: Ignoring too-old product: 3777 20071223160856.993 NEXRAD2 692010 L2-BZIP2/KRAX/20071223160812/692/10 ldmd.log:Dec 23 17:09:01 adiabat idd.unidata.ucar.edu[4402] INFO: Ignoring too-old product: 5718 20071223160857.199 NEXRAD2 550004 L2-BZIP2/KDVN/20071223160758/550/4 ... The arriving data-products are over one hour old, so the downstream LDM is ignoring them. This is consistent with the "rtstats" plot of the NEXRAD2 latencies for you system (they grow until they disappear) and also with log messages on our end about sending old data. I suspect, therefore, that the mean bandwidth between idd.unidata.ucar.edu and adiabat.rwic.und.edu is insufficient for the amount of data requested. Can you reduce the amount of requested data?
