Ken,

You are most likely not looking in the right place.
All of the GEMPAK software is located in the gbuddy ftp account, which
is accessed using the password that you were given when you initially
downloaded the software.
You can download just dcgrib from the ~gbuddy/nawips-5.4/patches/dcgrib.tar.Z,
however, if you have not updated your gempak distribution since 1997, then
at some point you should update to the pl15 release since it contains
several Y2K fixes since 1997.
