John,
Any data values that are not flushed to the decoded Gempak
file would not be in the Gempak file. The raw nldn file would
need to be redecoded to a new Gempak file.

Decoding the raw nldn files into Gempak can be accomplished
simply by cat'ing the file to the standard input of the decoder.
Once the data is decoded into Gempak format, a simple csh script
can be used with ltglist- presumably DATTIM=all if you want to
list out all values as text. To run ltglist on each Gempak file,
typically you would createa loop like:
#!/bin/csh
source /home/gempak/Gemenviron
set FILES=ls `9904*_nldn.gem*`
foreach FILE ($FILES)

ltglist << EOF
   sffile = $FILE
   dattim = all
   out=f/${FILE}.txt
   sfparm = sgnl;mult
   r

   e
EOF

end
