Hi again Jim,

I have put two AREA files out on our anonymous FTP server for you to
grab and test:

AREA3009 - created with IMGREMAP RTIMAGES/GEFDC13 MYDATA/IMAGES.3009 SMOOTH=YES
           followed by IMGCHA MYDATA/IMAGES.3009 DAY=20090 TIME=16:20:21

           This image still has the GOES-13 sensor source and band information.
           It should work without any problems in WXP

AREA3015 - created with IMGREMAP RTIMAGES/GEFDC13 MYDATA/IMAGES.3009 SAV=YES 
SMOOTH=YES

           By specifying SAV=YES, the GOES-16 sensor source, band, DAY and TIME 
information
           is written into the AREA file.  The only thing left that is GOES-13 
is the
           projection

What I need to know is if WXP can display the image in AREA3015 with no 
problems.

Thanks in advance...

Cheers,

Tom
