I've had a similar problem with DA. The only way that I have found around this difficulty is to download radar data separately. If I try to download with other data, i.e. METAR surface data, I get (unknown size) of 686K..
When I download it by itself I get a message that states how much data has ...

I'm a new DA user and I'm d/l'ing the RCM data from Albany and there is a huge file in the QUEUE.RCM, but when I ask it to plot radar it trys but nothing other than the title and level colors plot. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a better data source?

Thanks for any help I can get.
