Jose,

>someone was asking me if McIDAS could 'read' WSI-NIDS binary files
>(single station or composites)?

Unidata McIDAS can; SSEC McIDAS can't.  I wrote ADDE NIDS and NOWrad (tm)
servers for our McIDAS distribution awhile ago.  I have recently refined
their access to the data so as to speed up data access.
