That is correct.

The FNEXRAD feed _is_ fully available on rainbow.al.noaa.gov.  I verified
this by using the LDM application 'notifyme':

% notifyme -vxl- -f FNEXRAD -o 3600 -h rainbow.al.noaa.gov

It is possible that you are not allowed to get the FNEXRAD products from
rainbow.al.noaa.gov.  You should contact Hsie about this issue:
