Tom,

Even though you did not ask, I want to report that I am able
to list/display the unencrypted NIDS data from cacimbo through
ADDE.

I did the following from my machine here at the UPC with good
success:

DATALOC ADD NEXRAD CACIMBO.GGY.UGA.EDU
DSINFO I NEXRAD
        Dataset Names of Type: IMAGE in Group: NEXRAD

Name         NumPos   Content
------------ ------   --------------------------------------

N0R           9999    Base Reflectivity Tilt 1
N0S           9999    Storm-Rel Mean Vel Tilt 1
N0V           9999    Radial Velocity Tilt 1
N0Z           9999    248 nm Base Reflectifity
N1P           9999    1-hour Surface Rainfall
N1R           9999    Base Reflectivity Tilt 2
N1S           9999    Storm-Rel Mean Vel Tilt 2
N1V           9999    Radial Velocity Tilt 2
N2R           9999    Base Reflectivity Tilt 3
N2S           9999    Storm-Rel Mean Vel Tilt 3
N3R           9999    Base Reflectivity Tilt 4

So, you are ready to go for NIDS ADDEwise.
