Installation oddity!!

[Alemu Tadesse]

Hi All,

I am a new use of Grads. I already like it. I have
read nexrad stage IV daily rainfall file using grads.
According to the documentation attached to the file
the size of the file was supposed tp be 1121 by 881.
However, after opening the file in grads I found the
size to be 1601 by 801. Did any one come across this
problem ? if so, what was your conclusion (is that the
bug in Grads or the error in the documentation of the
file) ?

Thanks.
