Assuming that youu did in fact receive the upper air grids, they you should 
check the
number of grids in your file, and make sure that you are allowing enough room 
in your
file for the number of decoded fields. GDINFO will show the number of grids, 
and the 
maximum number of grids. GDINFO will also tell you if the fields are in your 
decoded file,
and if so, then you would have to check your plotting script for possible 
erroes.

Are you streaming the NOAAPORT data to the decoder? If so, make sure you
are not falling behind due to slow io or inadequate CPU to keep up.
