Re: 20030513: Level III Radar Data



Scott,

I was able to sucessfully display the KMOB image (attatched gif)
without any modification. Since you did not answer my question
about what version of GEMPAK you were running, I'll assume that
you may be using an out of date version.

The steps I followed (under GEMPAK 5.6.J):
Launch nsat
Pull down "File", select "User Defined"
Browse to file and click "Select", then "Load".

Similarly, in GPMAP, setting proj=sat and satfil to the appropriate file.
