 Hello everyone,

 OK, so many TINs were flying around over the past year that I got confused
 about the RUC changing to the RAP, and the 80 km grids being dropped. I
 currently have these in my pqact.conf:

 HRS     ^[YZ].Q... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC
        FILE    hrs/ruc/\2(\1:mm)\1(\1:yy).gbr
 HRS     ^[YZ].W... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC
        FILE    hrs/ruc/\2(\1:mm)\1(\1:yy).grd

 Both are invalid; I know the 80 kn was dropped (the "Q") grid, but I
 thought the 40 km "W" grid was staying, just converted to the RUC. Can
 someone help me out here?

What do you mean by invalid?  I just ran this:

pqcat -v -l - -p '^[YZ].W... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC' > /dev/null

and got:

[..snip..]

My bad, the files are coming in on the 40 km grid, but not compatible with the program I am using. Thanks, everyone. And yep, Jeff, HDS=HRS, they're perfectly interchangable.
