Diana,
I find that the integrated stability index calculations that
compute the level of free convection are having trouble with
two features of the data. One being the duplicated levels
(eg 850 and 12.10 mb), and the other being certain missing
teperatures in the significant wind levels). GEMPAK is built
to handle the missing levels from the Radiosonde data which is
transmitted in parts, but the archived data is slightly different.
Probably the easiest solution I can offer is to create a small
program to clean up the GEMPAK files- that way you don't have to
reconvert any of the files you already have.
As a quick test, I passed your data below through and arrived at:
SNPARM = PRES;TEMP;DWPT;DRCT;SPED;HGHT
STNPRM = LIFT;SHOW;TOTL;SWET;CAPE;BRCH
STID = TOP STNM = 72456 TIME = 970621/0000
SLAT = 39.07 SLON = -95.62 SELV = 268.0
STIM = 0
LIFT = -11.75 SHOW = -11.05 TOTL = 60.30 SWET = 666.75
CAPE = 5986.85 BRCH = 219.21
etc.
I'll compile you a binary based on the increased number of times
that the executables I provided you have.
If you would ftp me one of the files you have such as the 1997 72456
file, I can verify some tests.
The incoming data directory on ftp.unidata.ucar.edu is:

cd incoming
