James, I don't recognize your location as one of our sites. It would help us out to know some more information about you, including how you obtained GEMPAK, your GEMPAK version, patch level, the OS you are using etc. along with the relevant input you are using to set the parameter values in your program. The GAREA should define the subset of points used for the calculation. GAREA can be defined several ways, shown in the "phelp garea" online help information.
