Okay, so it looks like NOAA didn't move it, but rather there's probably some temporary problem with the gzip routine for their data sources (I've found a couple other zero-sized gzip files in their data directory which used to contain data). However, there are uncompressed and zip-compressed versions of the same files available which appear correct: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/pub/stninfo/nsd_cccc.txt http://www.nws.noaa.gov/pub/stninfo/nsd_cccc.zip I'll ammend the FAQ with this information and also your recommendations, and include them in the 1.5 release.
