Hello Steve, The GEMPAK software package can be downloaded from: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/gempak/index.jsp and requires registration with our website (only basic information, and no cost to you). GEMPAK is intended for unix or linux systems, and will not install or run on windows systems. If you have successfully downloaded the package and are installing on a linux or unix system, please refer to the GEMPAK installation instructions at: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/gempak/GEMPAK/Install_GEMPAK.html where you will find help about uncompressing the gempak_upc5.11.4.tar.gz file and about installing and configuring the software.
