Mike,

did you install and update the imar2gm.f routine I made available yesterday?
This will fix a bug in the titles when reading the 3 digit years in the
IDD areafiles (GEMPAK expecte 2 or 4 digits). I announced the availability
yesterday afternoon- so you might not have gotten to it yet.

Also, for the gprcm, you can enter at the end of the $GEMTBL/grid/grdnav.tbl
file:
RCM  906 STR  90 -105   0  23.090 -119.036  45.619  -60.000 113  89 3.75 0
