I didn't try to figure out what the absolute maximum size is, but it is 
somewhere
around this size.

Yes, PTDISP supports the DEClut= keyword.  To see all of its options, run:

HELP PTDISP

re:

The "standard" enhancement (as defined by use in AWIPS) is WSR-BREF.
In fact, there are a whole set of "standard" enhancements as defined
by AWIPS in the McIDAS-X distribution.  To see the list, type:
