20041203: 20041202: 20041201: GEMPAK trouble with non-standard domain



Brian,

The Lambert projection code is part of the GEMPAK libraries,
and not specific to dcgrib2. The routine is
$GEMPAK/source/gemlib/gb/gblamb.c
which is available in the source code distribution.

The dcgrib2 program is in the source distribution under 
$NAWIPS/unidata/ldmbridge/dcgrib2.

If you want to send me a single (or small) example of
your grib, I can pass it through the debugger and see where
things are getting fouled.
