Hi Chris, Well, I am more confused now that it did not work for you. If worse comes to worse ( and we may be there already) I will obtain the files in GEMPAK here and allow you to ftp from my machine this afternoon. That way we can make sure you get the data. I already deleted my last set of .gem files but am re-generating them now. Will notify you when it is ready to ftp.. And will continue to investigate this dataset.
