Tom, The "message: table grib3.tbl" indicates the the modeling center that the grid is being labeled is not in the $GEMTBL/grid/cntrgrib1.tbl file. I have scanned through the NOAAPORT ingest logs, and see that there are a small number of proucts ^O[LMN]NC88 KWNB (Wave direction, height, period) that are identifying themselves as center 161. For the time being, you might want to duplicate the NCEP entry for #7 to 161 so that the ncepgrib3.tbl is located.
