Hi Pete,

All of that looks correct (I have those same changes and am able to see the 
entries). Couple things to check...

1. Under the Volume drop down, this list gets alphabetized, so even if you put 
the entry at the top/bottom, it will re-order.
2. Make sure you are looking in the middle "Fields" section under misc (there's 
a Fields-->misc and Planes-->misc). These shouldn't re-order/alphabetize so it 
should be at the bottom.
3. Check to make sure you don't have any other user overrides of these files:

find /awips2 -name misc.xml (there are multiple misc.xml files but the one in 
the fields/planview-timeseries is the one you should look for)
find /awips2 -name volume.xml
