Glenn,

I ran gdinfo on your file and find that the times look like:
 Number of grids in file:    37

 Maximum number of grids in file:   1500

  NUM       TIME1              TIME2           LEVL1 LEVL2  VCORD PARM
    1     010215/0015F000   010215/0015F000        0         NONE RDSP1       
    2     010215/0045F000   010215/0045F000        0         NONE RDSP1       
    3     010215/0115F000   010215/0115F000        0         NONE RDSP1       
    4     010215/0145F000   010215/0145F000        0         NONE RDSP1       
    5     010215/0215F000   010215/0215F000        0         NONE RDSP1       
    6     010215/0245F000   010215/0245F000        0         NONE RDSP1

etc.



On the file that I decoded here with dcgrib2, I have:
 Number of grids in file:    41

 Maximum number of grids in file:    100

  NUM       TIME1              TIME2           LEVL1 LEVL2  VCORD PARM
    1     010215/0015F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    2     010215/0045F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    3     010215/0115F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    4     010215/0145F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    5     010215/0215F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    6     010215/0245F000                          0         NONE RDSP1       
    7     010215/0315F000                          0         NONE RDSP1 
etc.


So, it appers that NMAP may be choking on the way the time1:time2
are in your file. Are you using dcgrib2? What is the platform
you are decoding on so that I can double check the results.


Thanks,

Steve Chiswell
