[AWIPS #EPU-122499]: nexrad2 edex

Justin,

How NEXRAD2 data-products are composited into complete scan volumes is, 
necessarily, specific to the NEXRAD2 decoder being used. The various packages 
(GEMPAK, McIDAS, AWIPS II) have their package-specific decoders.

I don't know how AWIPS II handles NEXRAD2 data-products. Perhaps Michael does.
