20030924:IDV Question Z-R relationship

Matt,

Thanks for sending the rain rate picture. Great to hear you fixed the
equation for z-R relation from Level II data. Can you send me the
correct version?  I hope to start an archive of example IDV Jython
methods online here.

Mr. Wier,

It turns out the equation(Z to R) given to me did work correctly.
If reflectivity is over 50 or so, the error in the calculation explodes.
 After recognizing the problem, I was able to deal with it.  So to sum
it up, 
you can apply the rain rate equation to level II data.
Thanks for all help
I've attached an example
