Glenn,

The CONUS map is hard coded into NSHARP. You can use snprof to display any
sounding globally. Garp also plots soundings, but the default 
$GARPHOME/tables/snstns.tbl is not a global table. You can change that.

I will have to investigate whether a map selection can be added to NSHARP
sincee it will also be useful with the aircraft obs.
