Greetings Ernie,
It looks like there was an issue in the header generated by the IDV.
Specifically, this part doesn't quite look right:
(index)->
I regenerated the header for you based on the information you sent (see below),
and I'm able to see the text products (sensor, model) in the IDV now. You
didn't mention which version of the IDV you are running, but it'd be a good
idea to move to the latest (3.0u2) if your aren't using it already. Just place
this header at the top of you files(s) and you should be good to go:
(index)->(sensor(Text),model(Text),Latitude,Longitude,visibility,RVR,ext_coeff,present_weather,ws,wd,temp,dew,pres,freez_rain,precip_accum,precip_rate,pwtxt(Text))
sensor(Text)[],model(Text)[],Latitude[unit="degrees"],Longitude[unit="degrees"],visibility[unit="mile"
missing="''"],RVR[unit="meter"
missing="''"],ext_coeff[missing="''"],present_weather[missing="''"],ws[unit="mi/hr"
missing="''"],wd[unit="degree" missing="''"],temp[unit="Fahrenheit"
missing="''"],dew[unit="Fahrenheit" missing="''"],pres[unit="mb"
missing="''"],freez_rain[missing="''"],precip_accum[missing="''"],precip_rate[missing="''"],pwtxt(Text)[missing="''"]
Cheers!
