Chris, I have a patch file in ~gbuddy/nawips-5.4/patches/sounder_prods.tar.Z This includes gemlib/im updates, the $GEMTBL/sat/imgtyp.tbl file update and $GARPHOME/gempak/colorbardraw.f update for garp. To build and install, download the tarfile to $NAWIPS, then: zcat sounder_prods.tar.Z | tar xvf - cd $GEMPAKHOME/source/gemlib/im make clean make all make clean cd $GARPHOME make all make install make clean I still need to work on some reasonable color table defaults for these products, but the scale is now correctly labled with units and scaled values. I'll be looking in to whether I can get Garp to display the derived units in the legend at the bottom in the next few days. Let me know if you have questions or problems.
