[GEMPAK #OEF-521024]: problem plotting the radar_mosaic_nathr

Hi Greg-

The grid is too large (4800x3000 pts) for  GDPLOT.  Try using GDPLOT2
instead.  You can use the restore file at $NMAP_RESTORE/radar/nexr/n0r
to load in the defaults used in NMAP2.  GDPLOT2 will automatically
subsample the grid.

There's some more info on this at the bottom of the following page:
