[IDD #CDT-892963]: GPS data through LDM

> I am requesting GPS data from the LDM/SUOMINET feed and, then, process

Hi Luis,

We have been getting hourly data during this time frame..and I have been 
creating a product from the data, it is available here:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/suominet/index.html

..and there are archives going back to 2004.


Looking at your ldmd.conf file, it is the same as ours.


I ~think you action may be wrong, this is what our directory looks like:

/local/ldm/data/suomi% ls -lrt

..and a very small (insignificant) difference in your pqact, we have:

# Suominet data
#
#GPS    ^TEST
GPS     suoHWV.*nc$
        PIPE    -close  decoders/dcsuomi
        -d data/gempak/logs/dcsuomi.log
        -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables
        data/gempak/gps/YYYYMMDD_oldsuomi.gem
#
GPS     CsuPWVh.*nc$
        PIPE    -close  decoders/dcsuomi
        -vx
        -d data/gempak/logs/dcsuomi.log
        -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables
        data/gempak/gps/YYYYMMDD_suomi.gem

NOTE -vx is NOT in your instance.

Any chance there could be network issues?

Let us know if this is persisting and we will continue to investigate, from 
your conf files and actions, all looks good.

Cheers,

Jeff
