19990419: NMC2, HDS, gempak decode probs

Robert, 
Ther first error about $GEMTBL not being found will cause big problems
with the decoder. In general, the LDM does not have this variable defined in 
its environ, so the -g flag on the dcgrib decoder is used to set this location
so that the $GEMTBL/grid/ tables can be found. The problem with the mrf grid
003 grids not being written is probably because the parameter tables
could not be found when the file was created.

The RUC2 data in the NMC2 feed should be reported as being on grid
#236 or #255 (depending on which cray it is run on). 

If you are having grids from NOAAport show up as RUC201 etc, then
this is a problem. It sounds like your pqact.conf entry is not
sufficiently filtering out only ruc. The Ruc grids on NOAAport should
be on grid #211, and should all have the /mRUC tag in them. The
dcgrib action for the HRS ruc grids grnrally looks like:
HRS     ^[YZ].*/mRUC

If you want to send me your pqact.conf file, I'll look into it.
