This came through today: ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18 AT APPROXIMATELY 19 UTC, THE NWS WILL BE RESTORING THE CORRECT FORMAT TO PRODUCTS WHICH HAVE SECOND COMMUNICATION HEADING LINES OF LESS THAN 6 CHARACTERS. ACCORDING TO NWS COMMUNICATIONS HEADER POLICY, IF THE SECOND LINE OF THE COMMUNICATIONS HEADER IS LESS THAN 6 CHARACTERS, THE SECOND LINE WILL BE PADDED WITH SPACE CHARACTERS TO FILL THE SECOND LINE OUT TO 6 CHARACTERS. FOR EXAMPLE, IN THE STATE WEATHER ROUNDUP PRODUCT FOR NEW MEXICO WHICH IS WMO HEADER ASUS45 KABQ, THE SECOND LINE OF THE PRODUCT SHOULD READ "SWRNM ". A RECENT UPGRADE TO THE NWS SOFTWARE WAS NOT PROPERLY PADDING THE SECOND LINE WITH SPACE CHARACTERS IF REQUIRED. . NOTICE FOR THE NWS OFFICES, THIS CHANGE WILL BE IMPLEMENTED AT ALL OFFICES WHICH ARE RUNNING AWIPS VERSION 5.2.1.3 SOFTWARE. THE /awips/fxa/bin/distributeproduct AND /awips/fxa/bin/handleoup.pl EXECUTABLES WILL BE UPDATED. THE ORIGINAL 5.2.1.3 VERSIONS OF THESE EXECUTABLES WILL BE SAVED ON DS1 AS /awips/fxa/bin/distributeproduct.R5213 AND /awips/fxa/bin/handleoup.pl.R5213. ALSO THE ORIGINAL 5.2.1.3 LINUX VERSION OF DISTRIBUTEPRODUCT WILL BE SAVED ON LX1 AS /awips/fxa/bin/distributeproduct.R5213. NO ACTION WILL BE REQUIRED BY THE AWIPS SITE TO ACTIVATE THIS CHANGE. .
