I was writing a response explaining that, guess now I don't have to.  :)

One other thing I'll mention though is xdfopen, I've had luck with that in the 
past on poorly formatted netCDF data but it's been a while so I don't recall 
what exactly you need to make that work.  I know you have to write some kind of 
control file that explains the data, that gets used instead of the netCDF 
internal metadata.  If you can figure out what that control file needs there's 
a chance you could get that to work, but in all honesty that's outside of my 
wheelhouse.


> Thanks for your prompt response anyway, it's been helpful.

My pleasure, happy to help!

Best,
