Ok, T.,
<br>
<br>you will have to download the FNL GRIB 1 file again. Don't do any conversion with it. The FNL files can be directly seen in GrADS. Your .ctl file is ok.
<br>I don't know what kind of "conversion" you did, but certainly it is not necessary, since the fnl files, with that _c as suffix, are already in GRIB 1 format.
<br>
<br>All you have to do after downloading the FNL file is to run gribmap again:
<br>gribmap -i <yours>.ctl
<br>
<br>Try this, please, and let us know if it works or not.
<br>
<br>Greetings,
<br>Ricardo

Dear Ricardo,
<br>>
<br>> Yes, I did as like as you explained. I am
in doubt, maybe I have to do it again. I have a question; the source fnl file
has a size of 23 MB, but after converting it to a ctl and an idx file, each of
them has a size of just seven kb, is it correct and acceptable? I think maybe
the converting process has not been done correctly.

<br>>
<br>> T.

The .idx has to be created with the gribmap command, outside the GrADS and
before running GrADS:

will CREATE an index file. The name of this index file is set in your .ctl
file, as follow in the example below:
<br>> >
<br>> > dset
fnl_20081112_18_00_c

Don!
't you think; it is related to converting process from fnl type to a
c
ontrol file and an idx file?
