[GEMPAK #JTO-577675]: dcgrib2 issues



Hi Jamie,

First I'm curious what OS and GEMPAK version you're using.

Then we have two options to play with: either you can manually run dcgrib2 with 
verbosity level 4 (dcgrib2 -v 4 ***.grib ...) and report back what is printed 
in  "SECTION 5 - DATA REPRESENTATION SECTION" - or you can point me to where I 
can find one of these files to play around with myself and try to find a 
solution (perhaps both would be best).
