Tom, The $GARPHOME/config/Garp_defaults has a entry at line 445: # # Widget defaults # # Choose default values for the model, vertical coordinate, levels, # function, default fdf chapters, cross-section line, time-height # station, vertical profile axis types, radar ring station, upper # air levels and upper air filter. # model : eta The "eta" name is aliased in $GEMTBL/config/datatype.tbl as the nam211 data set. In your case, you have a 12km nam, but not that default 80km nam. You can either redefine the "ETA" default to point to your 12km NAM set in datatype.tbl (eg the $MODEL/nam12km/ directory) or change the entry from "eta" to nam12: model : nam12 You will also want to ad that modelkey and modellabel since the 12km grid insn't in the default list. There was a filled contour bug in Garp with 5.10.4 which is fixed in the upcoming 5.11.1 distribution.
