Hi Samuel,

Good catch!  The problem arose when I changed the dataset group from RTGRIDS 
where there is
a descriptor of NAM to RTGRIBS where the catch-all descriptor is NAM-ALL.  
Thanks for spotting this!
I just fixed it in the Workshop and Learning guide web pages.

OK.  I'll have to investigate this one as the Workshop/Learning Guide section 
on the
GUI came from Wisconsin.

Yes, but in a different way.  I coded the MCGUI to include the state in which 
the
radars are located and sorted the list of stations by state so that one could 
find
the radars in their state easily.

Thanks for reporting the problems!

Cheers,

Tom
