Re: Problems with Case7 RUC Model Data

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.

Sorry for the problems,

-Jeff
