Thanks for any suggestions. John Wilson. The first question is if you are using McIDAS-X or McIDAS-V (there is a BIG difference)? I assume that you are using McIDAS-V since McIDAS-X does not support use of netCDF files for upper air storage/use. If you are using McIDAS-V I will likely had this over to our IDV folks as they should be able to help you (McIDAS-V is built on top of our IDV package (and that is built on top of VisAD)).
