Re: MRF/AVN data feed



HI Sean, 

I am not aware of such a site, but if on a UNIX box you can type 
man cron

to inform how to set up your crontable, and then you will be performing
the function ftp (ftp).(...).nws.gov -whatever there ftp server is
called...on a certain time avery hour or day, depending on what prods and
there availability..This may be too much ..or not enough info, but please
feel free to ask any questions if you encounter difficulties with this
process...

Thanks and good luck!!

-Jeff
