Re: [ldm-users] 20090416: NOAAport down

We have noticed this as well, from two separate Novra units operating from 
separate satellite systems. An s75reset cleared this issue for us as well, 
however it resumed three separate times at separate intervals on both 
receivers. Our issue however was even more odd, as the signal strength reported 
from the receivers would jump up into the 90+ range, and on occasion over 100+ 
(out of range). 

Over the last several days I have not observed this behavior however.

Hi Dan, Gilbert, et. al.,

I have noticed on a number of occasions that our Novra S75 needs to be
reset after an outage or noise incident.  When I saw that we were once
again ingesting the NOAAPort broadcast, I logged onto one of our
ingesters (Solaris 10 x86) and ran S75_TEST.  Our indicated viterbi Bit
Error Rate was on the order of 10e-2 until I reset the device.  After
the reset, it has been hovering between 10e-5 and 10e-4.

Cheers,

Tom
