20050216: 20050215: LDM question about Redbook graphics/pqact.conf

Gilbert,

There are other products that begin with "P" that are
not redbook graphics, so a global P..... will catch more
than just redbook, such as AFOS graphics and some others.

NWS maintains the list of products, but you can get a general
catalog by looking at the pil/product ID fields that
are in the IDD data stream, for instance, where the NMCGPH...
field denotes the NWS product ID (as is in the data itself):
PYWA31 KWBC 160900 !redbook 0_0/NMCGPH9AM/WNDGEO/PXSF000CN/20050216 0940
PAW082 KWBC 160900 !redbook 0_0/NMCGPH90R/RDR90R/PDS0000CN/20050216 0954
PAW083 KWBC 160900 !redbook 0_0/NMCGPH90S/RDR90S/PDS0000CN/20050216 0954

The GEMPAK distribution maintains the products by their NWS ids.
