Russ,

The data that comes through the Novra DVB-S2 receiver is the NOAAPort 
broadcast. If you want it, then you either need to request it from an LDM
that gets it or you must ingest it from a NOAAPort receiving station (in
which case you must use the configure(1) option "--with-noaaport").

Your log file contained messages like this:

    20170222T194710.489497Z ldm.madis.ncep.noaa.gov[5013] WARN 
error.c:236:err_log() Couldn't connect to LDM on ldm.madis.ncep.noaa.gov using 
either port 388 or portmapper; : RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused

The possibilities are:
    * The upstream host isn't running an LDM;
    * A firewall rule prevents you from contacting the upstream LDM; or
    * The upstream LDM doesn't have an ALLOW entry in its configuration-
      file for you (has your hostname or IP address changed?).

> We now McIDAS-XCD compiled waiting on data from LDM.

That was the other set of programs that were missing.
