[GEMPAK #UQC-142063]: gridded data lat/lon

Hi Evi,

Reading latitude and longitude can be easily done with GFUNC special parameters 
LATR and LONR, in radians, which can be converted to degrees with:

GFUNC = mul(latr,RTD) for latitude listed for row/column number
GFUNC = mul(lonr,RTD) for longitude

Hope this is what you need to make it work.
