I run Qcharts as a back up to my FutureSource satellite and
although I sometimes notice some small price discrepancies,
the Herndon server seems pretty accurate most of the time.
I say most, not all. Despite the problems with drop off, the
reason I keep the Qcharts feed going is not the better accuracy
but because the prices come in several seconds in front of the
Futuresource satellite ALL the time. Someone on this list
suggested that pcquote suffered fewer problems than quote.com
and might be worth the switch. Might be worth investigating.
