[IDD #JYB-119414]: LDM REQUEST to 128.117.140.3

You should be REQUESTing feed(s) from either/both of the top level
IDD relay clusters that we operate:

idd.unidata.ucar.edu   (128.117.135.3_
iddb.unidata.ucar.edu  (128.117.130.3)

It is best to REQUEST by name, not by IP.  Why?  REQUESTing
from 128.117.140.3 instead of idd.unidata.ucar.edu prevented your
machine from automatically following when we moved the old
implementation of idd.unidata.ucar.edu (IP 128.117.140.3) to
the NCAR/Wyoming Supercomputer center some time back.  During
the move, the fully qualified name was kept, but the IP address
changed.

Since the machines you listed both have forward and reverse DNS,
you should be able to REQUEST the NEXRAD2 feed when you change
your REQUEST to idd.unidata.ucar.edu.  The best way to verify
this is as follows:

<as 'ldm' on each of your nexrad1 and nexrad2 macines>

notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD2 -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu

and 

notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD2 -h iddb.unidata.ucar.edu

re:
> Thanks,

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
