The IDV should be able to handle this file.  I tried to open a compressed
Level II radar file with 2.6 update 2, but do not have a copy of 2.6
that I can test with.  Could you try upgrading your IDV to the 2.6u2  version?

If that doesn't work,  could you upload that file to:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu/repository/alias/idvupload

and I'll look to see what's going on.
