Hi Matthew, re: > I am contacting you regarding the status of the RTPTSRC dataset on > ADDE.UCAR.EDU. I noticed as of yesterday there is no longer any > real-time MD files or data on this ADDE data server. We got a couple of reports by IDV users who were unable to access satellite imagery from adde.ucar.edu (which is currently pointing to atm.ucar.edu) late yesterday and this morning (you were the third). Because we saw some "weirdness" on the machine, we rebooted it. Since the reboot, I have successfully displayed the most recent 30 GOES-East/West IR composite images, created a plot of North American temperatures and displayed a meteorogram for KMSN in McIDAS-X. Can you retry your access attempt(s) and let us know if you are still experiencing a problem? TIA... re: > Can you recommend an alternative ADDE server? The motherlode class servers we run ADDE on are listed in the Publically Accessible McIDAS ADDE servers page: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/mcidas/adde_servers.html NB: this page has been reworked since you likely accessed it. re: > Thank you! No worries. Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
