I've seen the same problem with SHIP data around Iceland and elsewhere in the North Atlantic. The rul file just doesn't work with them. I suspect you're right in that they're not fixed locations.

It would be useful to be able to limit the use of certain parameters if their value is outside ...

Hi Wally and folks,

Tim - I'm pleased to hear that the MILD will eventually be read by DA.

The MILD location is correct for 06208/AWG-1, but the location identifier list (csv file) has "-" in front of the longitude number which needs removing (it's actually near the Netherlands coast) east of ...

In the csv file Namsskogan is incorrectly listed at 64.72N -12.83 (W)
It apparently should be 64.73 N 12.85 E (64 44N 12 51E)
taken from ftp://ftp.wmo.int/wmo-ddbs/Pub9volA100906.flatfile
It's also incorrect in the new master list.

Yes - I've seen some stations causing this problem. I have populated the digatmos.rul file with some of them (e.g. XXAA and XXBB and a Canadian station). But the rule file doesn't appear to work for me at the moment.

Does anyone know how to re-start it?

For the file content look for "DATA" at http ...

The file is:- digatmos.rul
although it doesn't appear to work for me at the moment, for a station I've just entered.
I'm using Version 2.07.

Yes - I'm seeing the same problem again.

Using YYMMDDHH etc for input script files did work before, but not any more.

Loading them as a set of files outside the script does work.

Cheers,
Ian.

Hi folks,

You won't see meteo.ttf in your fonts list - it's called WeatherSymbols (TrueType).
I've had the same problem, I removed the font file, downloaded the meto.ttf file from DOWNLOADS and installed it.

All this because under true type my PTEND is plotting only as numbers and I don't see ...

These codes are available for writing file name date and time in scripts - this copied from the old WS manual:
Inserting current times
Time tokens may be inserted into any command, which will be replaced with the current
date and/or time when the script is executed. This allows you, for instance, to ...

If the importing files from the script have the name in the form YYMMDDHHxxxxx.xxx then you will get the right date and time. I used to use YYYYMMDDHH and this doesn't work, it would be useful if the 8 character search could also include the 10 character option to pick up date and time.
