The LDM ingester that created the data-product sets the name of the originating 
system -- hopefully (but not necessarily) from the value of the "/hostname" 
parameter in the LDM registry. In your example, either the value of that 
parameter is "awcdas.awc" or the ingester used something else.

We can't enforce compliance.

Chico is the hostname of the machine that create this data-product.

No. Chico is one of our machines that ingest data from the NOAAPort broadcast.

Data from the NOAAPort broadcast is used by almost all of our users. You can 
see the distribution tree for NOAAPort textual data-products at 
<http://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/rtstats_feedtree?IDS|DDPLUS>.
