Hi Greg,

re:
> RTNEXRAD stopped again at 13:02 UTC today. Can you give it a swift kick?

Hmm... it looks like the TDS is sucking up more and more of the CPU on
the machine that is currently adde.ucar.edu (currently atm.ucar.edu).
I suggest you point at motherlode.unidata.ucar.edu since it is not having
TDS problems, and I just verified that the RTNEXRAD/N0Q dataset is up
to date there:

DATALOC ADD RTNEXRAD MOTHERLODE.UNIDATA.UCAR.EDU

Group Name                    Server IP Address
--------------------         ----------------------------------------
RTNEXRAD                     MOTHERLODE.UNIDATA.UCAR.EDU

<LOCAL-DATA> indicates that data will be accessed from the local data directory.
DATALOC -- done
 
IMGLIST RTNEXRAD/N0Q.-10 ID=FTG

I will alert the TDS guys to the situation...
