HIYA! I have my LDM email me RERs and other interesting text products. Anyway, it seems that lately I have been getting many duplicate emails. The text of the products will be the same but the WMO header will be slightly different. Take, for instance, a SPECIAL NCEP DISCUSSION ADMNFD # /home/ldm/bin/pqcat -v -l - -f WMO -p "/pADMNFD" > /dev/null Jun 10 18:32:04 pqcat: Starting Up (28999) Jun 10 18:32:08 pqcat: 490 20020610115717.111 IDS|DDPLUS 206 NOUS42 KWNO 101156 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:10 pqcat: 1467 20020610134111.930 IDS|DDPLUS 419 NOUS42 KWNO 101340 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:11 pqcat: 1467 20020610141246.336 IDS|DDPLUS 695 NOUS42 KWNO 101412 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:12 pqcat: 1437 20020610150705.731 IDS|DDPLUS 771 NOUS42 KWNO 101506 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:15 pqcat: 1071 20020610173221.633 IDS|DDPLUS 659 NOUS42 KWNO 101732 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:15 pqcat: 1071 20020610174052.419 IDS|DDPLUS 019 NOUS42 KWNO 101740 /pADMNFD Jun 10 18:32:17 pqcat: Exiting Jun 10 18:32:17 pqcat: Number of products 6 If you look at the product sizes, there are two pairs that are identical. And there are two products that don't appear to be duplicated. I dumped two of the products with the same size to a file and diffed them. # diff one.txt two.txt 1,2c1,2 < 019 < NOUS42 KWNO 101740 --- > 659 > NOUS42 KWNO 101732 Hmmmmmmmmmm. Anybody else noticed this? I have checked a colleagues LDM and he has the same duplicate products. I also seem to think that other products are being duplicated as well, but I can't find evidence of it right now. Maybe it is just something unique about KWNO or I am imagining things. Since AWIPS is probably generating the header, maybe there is a problem there this morning. Anyway.... Thanks, Daryl
