Robert,

I don't have a solution to this problem at this time.

You can change the HAGL coordinate to HGHT in the $GEMTBL/grid/vcrdgrib1.tbl
file (or rename with gddiag to accomplish one part).

However, changing PAGL to PRES will cause the vertical coordinate to increate
in the opposite sense that you would assume with the PRES convention.

I need to look at the coordinate restrictions in the gdthgt program to find
what needs to be done to use the genral coordinates rather than just the 5
known special coordinates.

I would like to be able to produce a time series of 10m (hagl)
and 30 mb (hagl) winds like I can currently do with winds
using pres as the vertical coordinate in gdthgt.  However,
since gdthgt does not allow hagl or pagl as the vertical
coordinate it won't work for what I am trying to do.
Is there another way to do it, or a way to modify gdthgt
to allow it?

Thanks,
Robert Mullenax
