[McIDAS #ZNQ-188340]: Displaying SST via L2 GOES-16 Products

Hi Carol,

You don't need to use either the Unidata or SSEC GUIs.

Here is what to try:

- start McIDAS:

mcidas -config

- make sure that NONE is selected for:

Auto UI start (MCGUI|GUI|NONE)

- if you always want to start this way, make sure to select YES in:

Save configuration values to defaults file (YES|NO)

re:

If you are using the Unidata GUI, MCGUI, then yes.  I think that it might
be easiest for you to run without a GUI for the time being.

Cheers,

Tom
