Greg,

Apparently David Tyndal at Utah is working on the same thing:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/help/MailArchives/gembud-list/msg01335.html

John Horel announced LDM availability of MesoWest data in GEMPAK format years 
back 
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/help/MailArchives/ldm-users-list/msg01568.html

They would probably be the best starting point for information.
