Did SSEC ever have a DIFAX feed? 

We in AOS at UW Madison used to send out the Genuine Imitation DIFAX maps <TM> 
for a while, but some time ago I lost a disk and with it, many of the scripts 
that ran those.

We haven’t sent any out in at least a year, probably longer. 

I took a look on the rtstats site at Unidata and did not see any sites 
reporting sending or receiving the DIFAX feed.
