The new grib2.gex extension for GrADS v1.9 that I posted last week allows
you to use lats4d to convert grib-2 to grib-1, netcdf, hdf and binary. In
fact, to be able to use lats4d with grib-2 was my main motivation for
writing this extension. More information here:

You will need wgrib2 and g2ctl, but gribmap is not necessary.

*Important Remark about Lats4d Grib-1 Files*: When creating grib-1 files, by
default lats4d creates a fake LATS table that is good enough for using the
file with GrADS. However, if you need a grib-1 file for another application
that expects it to be 100% conformant with NCEP grib-1 files then you will
need to create to create a LATS table by hand, usually modifying the one
created by default.
