Don,
Yes, you are right - it was from ASPEN . They are EOL soundings from
the GV during the PREDICT experiment.
I told IDV it was upsonde/dropsonde format and opened one of the netCDF
from ASPEN (I thought I had tried that before) and to my surprise, it
opened! :)
Thank you.
Cheers,
Dave

I have sounding data from a field project that I would like to plot with
IDV. Is this possible?
I've imported text files as point data before, but how do I format them
so that IDV imports them as soundings? Is there an example somewhere of
the format I need?
From the page:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/data/DataSources.html
it list the formats for sounding data. The only text format that is
supported is the China Meteorological Administration (CMA) format.
However, I'm guessing you have the NCAR Aspen text format which is not
supported. If you can use Aspen to output to the netCDF
upsonde/dropsonde format, that should work even though it's not listed
in the page above.
