Paul,

>OK...Long letter

I think that the fastest way of getting your wind profiler decoding
problems fixed is to find out where the decoding is being done (ask
Dave B) and then get me a login to that machine (as both 'mcidas' and
'ldm').

OK...I think I am starting to see whta is happening. 

I run 
PROFSECT WSMN5 LATEST X -6 DAT=6MIN TYP=6MIN

But the schema thinks it should use WPRO not WPR6

So it must be on the saving end.  

I tried what you said (at least I think I did it right)

It still does not work.
