On a whim I downloaded the 23Z hrs file from motherlode. I found the 
missing report.  The first metar has an errant character so the report 
was interpreted as being binary and set the feedtype as HRS.
That is very interesting!  So, I had better fix my various pqact files to 
be sure to use WMO in the case of when a product shows up in the HRS 
feed...
As an aside, anybody else noticing an increase in the number of stray 
control characters showing up in various text products?  The ADMNCF has 
had it a bunch lately.  I have also noticed the "\'" string showing up in 
products too :(
