Hi Jess- > We had a user notice a problem with the remote soundings in McIDAS-V, > and I was able to duplicate it in the latest IDV nightly build. > > The error occurs when trying to display a sounding (error is listed > below). I tried several different stations from around the world and > was unable to get any of them to work. I was using the > adde.ucar.edu/RTPTSRC dataset. This is related to the recent changes to the units package in VisAD. There's a fix in local-visad.jar in the nightly build. Thanks for finding this.
