If your LDM is in verbose mode (ldmadmin start -v) then both the downstream LDM 
process that's receiving the radar products and the pqact(1) process that's 
processing them will log the products in the LDM log file. You can check the 
log file for the indicated size of those products to see if they're arriving 
truncated or not.

Alternatively, the relevant entries in the relevant pqact(1) configuration-file 
can use the "-log" option to cause the relevant pqact(1) process to log the 
products in the LDM log file. If you make this change, then you'll have to 
execute the command "ldmadmin pqactHUP" to cause the pqact(1) process to 
re-read its configuration-file.

No figure was attached.
