I've seen major degradation of NEXRAD3 since this switch. Radar data is missing for entire sites. I've confirmed this is the case at other upstream providers who have their own NOAAPORT dishes as well. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <ldm@ldm-central1-b.localdomain> Date: Thu, Sep 20, 2018 at 5:32 AM Subject: ADMIN NOTICE NOUS72 KNCF To: <ryan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, <noaaport-admin-notice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> 845 NOUS72 KNCF 201132 ADMNCF . --------------------------------------- Please pass to the MIC/HIC, SOO, ESA, ITO AND AFP: .
