[gradsusr] Files for polar stereographic map projection

I have written fortran code to output fields on a south polar
stereographic grid. When I plot, the values seem to drift from their
correct location as I get further into my file, so I am doing something
wrong. My control file has:
XDEF 360 LINEAR -180.000 1.000000
YDEF 300 LINEAR -90.000 0.009009
When I write the file, do I write the 360 points at -90 latitude (even
though they are all the same value), or is GrADS just expecting one
value there, followed by the 360 points for the next latitude. I am
doing the former, but if GrADS is expecting the latter, that could
account for the drift.
I could not find this information in the online documentation.
Thanks
