Hello

Im now trying to setup the decoders which I have installed properly (had
to install netCDF and udunits also to get the decoders to compile)

Any websites for setting this up in pqact.conf ? (need a little help)

Tom,

Here's the pqact entries from UPC's pqact.conf file. Note, that the white
spaces are tabs because the space is a valid char in the product pattern
section of the product.  Since, I did a cut/paste the white space will
need to be replaced with tabs in the entries.

Robb...
