I might have misled you :-( Colleague Tom Yoksas (who's been monitoring this exchange) pointed-out that most of your smaller-volume feeds are coming from marconi.rwic.und.edu and not from us. The exception is the GPS feed, whose interpretation is problematical. As a consequence, we can't say for certain that the flow from us to you is being shaped. :-( Because the CONDUIT feed has greater volume than the NEXRAD2 feed, if packet shaping were occurring, then that feed would also be affected. I suggest trying an experiment. Replace the REQUEST for IDS|DDPLUS data from Marconi with one to idd.unidata.ucar.edu. That way you'll get both high-volume and low-volume feeds from us and we'll be in a much better position to interpret the results.
