Kelly,

The Linux and Linux64 distributions are being reposted now.
I have fixed several string problems and have updated the 
documentation to reflect that the radar center point is now
@460;460 rather than @230;230 which was the primary cause of 
your missing data (since your cxstns values were almost entirely 
outside the data area). The text confirmation display output will 
now display the radar central lat/lon and radar center point location as a 
reminder.

When using an E-W cross section through the radar point, use
@1;460>@920;460 for reflectivity (or use lat/lon values
which you can obtain from gpnexr2 and use the "cursor cxstns"
command to set your axis.
