It seems a while back that BMI was blaming many of its data problems on
Bridge. Doesn't DTN use Bridge? Do you document problems with them? Is
there, or is there not, a timeliness problem with Bridge RT data?

Do you have any way to fill in tick data that was missed (either a
transmission problem or a problem at the receiver, such as a snowstorm)?
