George,

The tcpdump(1) output indicates that UDP packets are being multicast to address 224.0.1.3. The LDM configuration-file, however, doesn't execute a program that listens to that address.

Incidentally, the "-x" (debug) option will likely result in too much logging.

    Installed ldm-6.12.14 on Centos 6.6. Novra box sends data:

    Any hints what should I check? I have noaaport 1.7.1 with
    ldm-6.9.8 getting data from the same Novra receiver.
