Michael,
Depending on your available bandwidth, you could do something like request the
*entire* FSL3 feedtype and then process only the products of interest via
appropriate pqact(1) configuration-file entries. For example:
In "ldmd.conf":
REQUEST FSL3 .* srh-ls-cpnrs1.srh.noaa.gov
In "pqact.conf"
FSL3<tab>\.grib<tab>PIPE ...
FSL3<tab>^(ORN_QPF_SFC_)(.*)(\.grb)<tab>PIPE ...
...
(Note the escaped "." metacharacters in the above pqact(1) patterns).
Regards,
Steve Emmerson
