Patrick,
I will take a look through those GARP files and verbose options more tomorrow.
You did bring up a separate issue that relates to there not being as much
surface observations as we anticipate that we should see when we are able to
view some of the surface observations in GARP.
I need to look further into that, but it may be more of an LDM issue where we
are missing a data stream on our end.
Thank you very much for the quick response.
Very Respectfully,

NPS WARNING: *external sender* verify before acting.
The Garp options pulldown allows you to set logging to verbose 3 that may help
you nail down where the problems are arising...
As far as your file endings, check your pqact / decoder entries .. there were
changes in pqact awhile back that may affect your particular usage (elimination
of the -e GEMTBL flag for example) ... you may find rewriting to absolute paths
by product to be helpful in eliminating your shb issue.. something like this
maybe
DDS|IDS ^U[ABDEFGHIJKLMPQRSTXZ].... .... ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
PIPE decoders/dcuair -b 24 -m 16
-d /abs/path/data/gempak/logs/dcuair.log
-s /abs/path/gempak/nawips/gempakver/tables/stns/snworld.tbl
-p /abs/path/gempak/nawips/gempakver/tables/pack/snmerg.pack
/abs/path/data/gempak/upperair/YYYYMMDD_upa.gem
over the years i've found that when products are added or removed from streams
that separating products out and filing individually can be helpful in tweaking
to a particular setup...
hope this helps.
cheers,
--patrick

Subject: [gembud] Issues with viewing GEMPAK surface observations through GARP
GEMPAK Support,
I have been encountering some issues with getting GARP 2.1 to load surface
observations. GARP has a tendency to crash and work intermittently while it
adds and loads the file list.
The surface observation gem files end in *_sao.gem, but I believe our LDM feed
also adds *_shb.gem (ship and buoy observations) to the same directory. Even
when I move the *_shb.gem files out of this same directory, GARP may still
crash.
When I use the different verbose levels and view some of the output, I receive
some of the following messages during my multiple attempts to get the surface
observations to display:
--
--
GetFilteredDirectoryList
GetSfcList
add_list
add_file
...
GEMPAK: [SF -6] File is not a surface data file.
...

Is there a way to resolve any of the issues to get GARP to not crash when
attempting to open these surface observations? Is there something that I need
to reconfigure or update with GEMPAK or GARP to get it working appropriately?
Please advise and let me know if you need any additional information. Thank
you very much for your time and help.
