Alan, The script gtsnp_nr2decomp(1) appears to trigger a compression of all the decompressed segments of a sweep upon seeing the "/E" suffix in the product-identifier. If there's more than a single path by which data-products from a radar site can arrive at your LDM, then it's possible that the "/E" data-product will arrive *not* after the other three data-products of the same sweep have arrived. I suspect that the output of the compression utility, gtsnp_nr2comp(1), will be smaller in this case than if all four data-products of the sweep had been used.
