Gilbert,

The nexrad2 feed doesn't contain "products". The volume scans for each radar
have 3 parameters: reflectivity, velocity, spectrum width. Thats all.
The VCP pattern determines the number of levels and radar tilts in the volume.

Other things that you mention such as VIL and composite reflectivity are Level 
III
products.
