[conduit] [ldm-users] GFS change at 1200 UTC 25 September?

[Kevin R. Tyle]

As for the 2nd paragraph below, that might still be the case, since the 
0.5 degree fields are not sent (as far as I know) over NOAAPORT and/or the 
SBN--they are just posted on the ftp servers (and by extension, the 
CONDUIT feed).

FWIW, the 1 degree fields (which I don't think are sent over NOAAPORT, at 
least not on the NWSTG1 channel)  do not look different than pre-9/25, at 
least at first glance.
