[GEMPAK #UNC-854436]: GEMPAK Question

Blair,

You can put your data into an ascii format (the format that SFLIST outputs),
and import the data into GEMPAK using SFEDIT. You will need to create 
a station table for the coop stations.

See the GEMPAK tutorial:

A sample ascii data set and station table are provided as an example:
