Jim,

A little additional; NWSTG latency is at norm levels - 75second max over the 
past couple of weeks, with the average of 2 seconds.  Retransmits were higher 
between 1922Z and 1951Z yesterday than normal (for that period of time, they 
were running 30%-40% retransmit rate), but nothing since then.  All of this 
suggests the problem would be upstream . . . at the FAA drop.

Does anyone have a live NADIN II or 604 circuit to confirm this?
