Michelle,

Garp expects the $SAT environmental variable to be set in your
csh environment to find the root of the satellite directory tree.

Presumably your ntl.case command would set the $SAT variable to be at
the root of your case study tree- so you may need to edit the script
to define where the data sets reside on your system. Typically everything
is relative to a root directory for the case study under which all your
data would reside.

The $NAWIPS/Gemenviron script is typically used to set the location
of environmental variables for data sets used with realtime IDD feeds using
$SAT, $NTRANS_META, $GEMDATA, $HDS, and $TEXT_DATA. The ntl.case script
probably redefines these variables for its own tree- which may need to be 
defined if you aren't laung from the top of the data tree.
