My bad. The NPORT feedtype was an attempt to redo the feedtype categories that 
never got off the ground. The feedtypes that actually come out of the NOAAPORT 
package are WMO, NIMAGE, NGRID, and NEXRAD3. So the crontab(1) entry might be

    3,18,33,48 * * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'wasReceived -f 
"WMO|NIMAGE|NGRID|NEXRAD3" -o 15' || echo NOAAPORT data-products not received 
in last 15 minutes

Note that this might not tell you if *your* NOAAPORT system is working if the 
product-queue also gets these data-products from the IDD.
