Hi Mark,

>Hi!  The time has come where I am finally ready to get the LDM up and 
>running at CU.  The new linux box has arrived, is sitting next to my desk, 
>and I am not ready to attack it.

'Not' ready or 'Now' ready? :-)

>I am writing to find out my LDM upstream feed site.

We will want you to feed off of CU/CIRES (NOAA):

rainbow.al.noaa.gov

I will contact the LDM administrator for rainbow and ask him to
add an allow line for your machine, foehn.colorado.edu.

>As I mentioned at the training, the primary use for this LDM site will be 
>for the IDD-Antarctic.  In the meantime, while that project is developing, 
>we would like to connect to a North American LDM feed.

Sounds good.

>This is not a 
>mission critical data feed.  It will be primarily used to become familiar 
>with LDM and Gempak, isolate special cases for my advisor to use in the 
>classroom or a textbook, and general weather fun.

rainbow.al.noaa.gov is getting almost all of the data in the IDD.
If you are interested in getting NEXRAD Level II data, we will assign
a different server for you to feed it from.  Please remember that
there are some IDD feeds that are only done from originator to final
destination.  Those feeds include:

IDD feed    data type
-----------+---------------------
FNMOC       model output from Fleet Numerical
GEM         model output from CMC
NLDN        lightning data
PCWS        ACARS data
WSI         NEXRAD Level II data and composites from WSI (not free)

>At the training Tom 
>mentioned that we might be a good candidate for your new test server.

I am not sure I remember comments about a new test server, but I do
remember chatting about starting to get an IDD-Antarctic off of the
ground.  Could be my old age creeping in again ;-)  Can you refresh
my memory?  Thanks...

No worries.
