Yan,
No there are 47 parameters in the file, some of the parameters have have
different levels, times, etc. Each product only contains one parameter
and level time information and there are multi levels for one parameter.

I looked up you parameters, they come from a ecmwf parameter table. It
looks like these names are not the standard ones but are close. I'll attach the
table, it's in XML format.
Using your ctl file entries, ie
no10Usfc 0 165,1,0 ** 10 metre u wind component m s**-1
transforms into a table entry
Grib;netCDF ;long name ;units ;comments
165 ;no10Usfc;10 metre u wind component;m s**-1 ;
You need to do this for all 47 variables. Then use the table for both
programs gribtocdl and gribtonc. Then the names should be correct in the
NetCDF file.
The ctl file and parm_table_ecmwf_128.xml helped me decide the numbers.
