It appears that the NWS has pulled off the Puerto Rico satellite imagery
off the GOES East channel.
Does anyone know where it went and if it will be back on the GOES-EAST
channel.  We only have the
NWSTG and the GOES-E receivers.

Thanks,

Mike

I have looked on line and cannot figure it out. It would be nice if the

NWS

would put out some type
of documentation on the products sent via NOAAPORT.

Thanks in advance,

Mike,

It's the new 13-micron channel from GOES 12.  The new GOES satellites have
slightly different imager configurations.  The documentation can be found
here:

  http://www.nws.noaa.gov/noaaport/html/refs.shtml

There is a PDF link in the "ICD for AWIPS-NESDIS" section about halfway
down the page.  Specifically, the PDF link is:

  http://www.nws.noaa.gov/noaaport/document/icd_ch4.pdf

And the information can be found starting on page 26.  The table is 4.8B.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

  Bryan
