Howdy!
Curiosity gets the best of this cat sometimes and I was wondering if somebody
could explain why the attached Public Information Statement (PNS) ended up in
the HDS feedtype instead of the DDPLUS|IDS ?

I know, I could just convert everything I do to use the WMO feedtype to keep
my scripts from missing stuff... I guess at the end of the day, I am just
lazy and wish to simply request all of IDS|DDPLUS instead of all of WMO and
then having to make complex regular expressions to grab specific products I
wish from WMO.
PS. Probably to answer my own question, the product contained 'special'
characters and was switched to the binary product feedtype since
it didn't pass the 'ascii' test?
Yep, it's the latter. Is this an LDM problem or is it an AWIPS/NWS
problem? If it's LDM, can the test be changed so that these can come
through? I'm also guessing the NWS should know about this as well.
