This may be an oversight on NWS's end.  The AWIPS AVN grids are out to
120 hours but not the thinned grids.  Remember, the thinned grids were
not part of NOAAPORT initially but were added at the request of the user
community.  Considering the amount of additional data the thinned grids
to 120 hrs will add (roughly 20MB), there might be a
bandwidth/networking issue.
