Re: your mail

Hi Chris, 

I am taking this info from the LDM 5 Workshop notebook..

Feed            Volume
----            ------

DIFAX           19Mb/hour
FSL2            2Mb/hour
HDS             180Mb/hour
IDS|DDPLUS      6Mb/hour
MCIDAS          7Mb/hour
NEXRAD          73MB/hour
NLDN            291K/hour
NMC3(Floater)   3.5Mb/hour
NOGAPS          195Mb/hour


Your mileage may vary, but this should ballpark you..These are "max"
values per hour..

-Jeff
