Hi Mike, With GLEVEL=all and GVCORD=all in GDINFO you can view the grids you wish to plot: GEMPAK-GDINFO>l GDFILE = $MODEL/ruc/2012050117_ruc236.gem LSTALL = YES OUTPUT = T GDATTIM = f001 GLEVEL = all GVCORD = all GFUNC = HLCY GEMPAK-GDINFO>r GRID FILE: /data/ldm/gempak/model/ruc/2012050117_ruc236.gem ... NUM TIME1 TIME2 LEVL1 LEVL2 VCORD PARM 184 120501/1700F001 3000 0 HGHT HLCY Parameters requested: GDFILE,LSTALL,OUTPUT,GDATTIM,GLEVEL,GVCORD,GFUNC. GEMPAK-GDINFO> then in GDCNTR, specify GVCORD=hght and GLEVEL=3000:0 GEMPAK-GDCNTR>l GDATTIM = f001 GLEVEL = 3000:0 GVCORD = hght GFUNC = HLCY GDFILE = $MODEL/ruc/2012050117_ruc236.gem CINT = 0 LINE = 3 MAP = 1 MSCALE = 0 TITLE = 1 DEVICE = gif|grid.gif SATFIL = RADFIL = IMCBAR = PROJ = mer GAREA = us IJSKIP = CLEAR = YES PANEL = 0 TEXT = 1 SCALE = 999 LATLON = 0 HILO = HLSYM = CLRBAR = CONTUR = 0 SKIP = 0 FINT = 0 FLINE = 10-20 CTYPE = C LUTFIL = STNPLT = GEMPAK-GDCNTR>r ... the result of this is here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/gempak/wx/grid.gif Hopefully that will get you where you need to go. Let me know if you have any followup questions.
