Jerome, You are correct about the scanning mode not supported error, I missed the that with all the table missing messages. I created the nceptab_2_128.tab and then their were only the scanning mode messages. I'll implement the scanning mode processing in a couple of days. I'm wondering if you could help me find the French Weather Service grib parameter tables? My French contacts haven't responded and I've been unsuccessful in locating them. If you can't help, could you pass this request along to some one who might help me locate the tables. Thanks, Robb...
