Hiya, I'm pleased to release the decoders package 2.3.6. The release contains minor modification to all the decoders with a major change to the Upperair decoder. The minor changes were y2k type of fixes and the Upperair decoder was modified to use the AWIPS cdl called raob.cdl. The pqact.conf entry for ua2nc will have to be modified to use raob.cdl instead of ua.cdl. The ua.cdl is still included in the release as a reference, BUT it will not work with current version of ua2nc. _________________ ______________________________________________________ 2.3.6 y2k fixes in all the perl decoders. Upperair decoder now uses the awips cdl, called raob.cdl, changed upperair/Makefile.in to include raob.cdl, modified test.pl for upperair. grib1.h was modified to accommodate large products. ruc2.cdl was modifies for new variables, ie ssrun.
