Hi Mary Ellen,

Unfortunately, you didn't quite get the name of the server correct.
It should be:

goeseast.unidata.ucar.edu

Its counterpart for GOES-West data is goeswest.unidata.ucar.edu.

The full access information is:

ADDE Group    Server
-------------+--------------------------------------
EAST          goeseast.unidata.ucar.edu
WEST          goeswest.unidata.ucar.edu

re:
> Thanks,

No worries.  Nice to see you in New Orleans!

Cheers,
