Hi Victor,

What GEMPAK version are you using?  I can't say much off the top of my head 
because I'm able to decode the grib2 RAP #236 files without error (downloaded 
from NCEP NOMADS).  I dropped back to GEMPAK 5.11.4 to see if it may be a grib 
table issue but decoding was fine then as well.

Maybe we're using two different files?  Can you point me to where I can find 
the exact files you're using?
