Russ,

Excellent.

By the way, the problem with the MIX plotting from RAOBxxxx(via PTDISP/PTCON)
is caused by incorrect definition of MIX in the context files RAOBCON.CORE
and RAOBPLOT.CORE:

The entry:

MIX    UNIT=G/KG \
       FORMAT=F5.2 \
       MATH='RMIX(P1,P2)'\
       IRAB='P1=T[K]' 'P2=P[HPA]' \
       RAOB='P1=T[K]' 'P2=P[HPA]'

should be:

MIX    UNIT=G/KG \
       FORMAT=F5.2 \
       MATH='RMIX(P1,P2)'\
       IRAB='P1=TD[K]' 'P2=P[HPA]' \
       RAOB='P1=TD[K]' 'P2=P[HPA]'

I just finished generating and resolving an inquiry (11257) for this.

Inquiring minds want to know...
