Hi Rod, re: > But I keep getting an error when typing this: > > IMGPROBE STAT BOX RICE OUTLINE=YES 6 MODE=N LINELE=61 121 F PLACE=ULEFT > SIZE=11 28 EXCLUDE=-109.57 -6.77 > > RICE is not valid calibration for band 1. > > What's the problem here? First, I do _not_ get the error when running the following for an image which I calibrated using the script I sent you: SF 1 ERASE IMGDISP G13/ERAD27APR11 LAT=34.8 88 TIME=20:25 EU=CLW3 REFRESH='EG;MAP H;MAP COUNTY=ALL ST=MS AL GA MCOL=8' IMGPROBE STAT BOX RICE OUTLINE=YES 6 MODE=N LINELE=61 121 F PLACE=ULEFT SIZE=11 28 EXCLUDE=-109.57 -6.77 Questions: - did you load (IMGDISP) the image before running IMGPROBE? - if yes, did you calibrate the image using the script I provided? The error suggests that the image being interrogated is not calibrated. Comment: - you have to be careful when specifying the EXCLUDE= keyword values For instance: EXCLUDE=-109.57 -6.77 says to exclude the two values -109.57 and -6.77 I think you want: EXCLUDE=-109.57--6.77 which excludes the range of values between -109.57 through -6.77 If you want to exclude all Erad values less than zero, then I would use: EXCLUDE=-109.57-0 Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
