[GEMPAK #RKH-137764]: Satellite image issues

Hi Kevin,

re:
> I need to know if there is something going on with the satellite data. This

> says  "No entry in the image type table, imgtyp.tbl, for file
> $SAT/EAST-CONUS/1km/VIS/VIS_20081215_2115"  (or whatever file it is looking
> at).   Now, having said that I still have an image but I cannot use the zoom
> feature to zoom in.   If I choose ROAM I can change that but as far as
