Alan,

That's a good idea to re-queue the products but you got the header wrong,
it should start with the "SAUS70 KDEN 281536 1999333154000765".  Here's
the output from ldmadmin watch on the products:

Nov 29 20:48:02 pqutil:     1271 19991129204801.533 IDS|DDPLUS 420  SRUS58
KWBC 292044 /pRRSMT
Nov 29 20:48:02 pqutil:      147 19991129204801.542 IDS|DDPLUS 421  SRUS51
KWBC 292044 /pRRSHOU
Nov 29 20:48:02 pqutil:      826 19991129204801.553 IDS|DDPLUS 422  SRUS57
KWBC 292044 /pRRSMS
Nov 29 20:48:02 pqutil:      197 19991129204801.558 IDS|DDPLUS 423  SRUS60
KWBC 292044 /pRRSMHX

I would also check surf_split.c to see what the header it's expecting.
I think the routine to look at is: pqing/wmo_header.c:get_wmo_header

I think this will work with a little more investigation.
