Jeff,
I have some questions about bufr tables. Hope you can answer these.
A snippet of your code shows:
C
IF ( cborg (1:4) .eq. 'KARP' ) THEN
bfstyp = 'NC004004'
ELSE IF ( cborg (1:4) .eq. 'EGRR' ) THEN
bfstyp = 'NC004006'
ELSE
bfstyp = 'NC004009'
END IF
It appears that you are using part of the product pattern to load certain
tables, is that correct?
In doc:
http://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/sib/decoders/BUFRLIB/toc/dfbftab/
it mentions that the mnemonic tables need to be loaded according to
datatype and data subtype. This seems different then your code, can you
explain this?
In doc:
http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/data_processing/NCEP_BUFR_File_Structure.htm#ASCII_Table
it mentions that the first descriptors in the data refer to what tables
need to be loaded to decode. How many products follow this syntax?
In doc:
http://www.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/mmb/data_processing/bufrtab_tabled.htm
In the local classes there are many reference to mnemonic tables that I
can't find anywhere on the web. The tables are in [] similar to
[NC003003]. Where can I download these tables?
Thanks,
RObb...

Dear Robb,
We noticed that you recently asked to join our "BUFRLIB support" mailing
list. However, this is a list for use by myself and all of the other folks
who collectively maintain the NCEP BUFRLIB software - we use it to receive
user inquiries, discuss maintenance issues, respond to bug reports, etc. I
believe you would be better served by instead subscribing to our "BUFRLIB
announce" mailing list at ncep.list.bufrlib-announce@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This is the list we use to notify our users of general announcements,
software updates, etc. You can still post inquiries to the "BUFRLIB support"
list, but it's not a list to which you should be directly subscribing.
Best regards,
-Jeff
