Hi Gabe,

Sorry to have taken so long to reply, but we were at the AMS meeing in
San Diego last week and are just now catching up on the backlog of
support email.

The NMC2 feedtype is the original name for the current CONDUIT IDD datasteam.
Top level relays for CONDUIT are:

- University of Illinois

  IDD contact: David Wojtowicz <address@hidden>

- University of Wisconsin-Madison

  IDD contact: Pete Pokrandt <address@hidden>

- UCAR

  IDD contact: Unidata User Support <address@hidden>

Please contact either Dave Wojtowicz or Pete Pokrandt and request that
they allow your LDM machine access to the CONDUIT datastream.  You will
need to provide them with the fully qualified hostname of your machine
for them to add the appropriate allow.  If neither David or Pete are
able to help you, please send us a note and we will setup a feed for
you out of UCAR/Unidata.

>Thanks,

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom Yoksas
