This problem does >not go away during low usage times... so I don't think it is a bandwidth >issue. This problem is fixed in the current (7.6.0) release of the ldm-mcidas decoder, lwtoa3. Please update your ldm-mcidas decoders to the current version (announced today!) by FTPing a binary distribution for your platform from the pub/binary directory of our FTP server, ftp.unidata.ucar.edu. Make sure that you grab a 7.6.0 ldm-mcidas distribution as the 7.4.0 version will exhibit the streaks that you note above. >Any suggestions would be GREATLY appeciated. Let me know (address@hidden) if this does not fix your problem.
