Hi Tim,

There is no anonymous download available for GEMPAK, but the package is freely 
available (as source code) from Unidata and can be downloaded if you register 
with our website.  Registration is a requirement of the distribution agreement 
between the Unidata Program Center and NOAA/NCEP, which provides the package to 
us.

After registering, you can download the package from 

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/gempak/index.jsp

And no further "participation" is required, though if you have questions about 
installing or using GEMPAK, please feel free to contact us again.

Best,

Michael James
Unidata Support Staff
