Hi,

re:
> Thank you, Tom, for the helpful information!

No worries.

re:
> I'll let you know what we learn.

OK, thanks.

FYI: I created a compressed tarball that contains both the original and
modified versions of GEMPAK 7.5.1 source files that need to be modified
for Y2K21 fixes.  The procedure for using the tarball is:

<as 'gempak'>
-- copy the tarball to the ~gempak/NAWIPS directory
cd ~gempak/NAWIPS
tar xvzf gempak_y2k21.tar.gz
make
make install

I used this tarball to update the GEMPAK 7.5.1 instance that the AMS is
using for their Datastreme project last night, and, as far as I can tell,
their GEMPAK decoding, analyses and displays are once again working
correctly.

I can make the tarball available to you (and others) if you like.
Before doing this, I want to add code modifications for display
of NEXRAD Level 2 radar data that were provided by Steve Chiswell.

Cheers,

Tom
