Hi Charles, 

I can't see anything wrong in your .ctl. 
So, please, check if there is not a dot between the word "master" and "grb" in the file. If it really has, please, correct the .ctl and rerun gribmap.

> Hello All,

> I am a fairly new user of GrADS. My setup includes: GrADS 2.0.2 on
> Fedora 19, g2ctl 0.0.8.8 and wgrib2 v1.9.9.

> I am having issues with all GRIB2 files. I have followed instructions
> and I can successfully create control files and index files, but
> GrADS returns "all undefined values" no matter what I try to plot. I
> have been getting around this by converting the files to GRIB1 and
> using grib2ctl, which I have had no trouble with. However, I would
> like to eliminate that step. I was wondering if anyone could shed
