Giovanni, I tried the URL below, but received an error. The problem seems to be my binary installation did not update the dcreanal program directory. There are 2 directories in the source distribution $NAWIPS/unidata/ldmbridge/dcreanal and $NAWIPS/unidata/ldmbridge/dcreanal2 both build and install a program called dcreanal (the former was an older version for specific limitations). Apparently on our linux system, the install did not install the dcreanal from the dcreanal2 directory. I have attached the dcreanal executable here for you to try.
