Hi Don, how are you?

Can you please share your notes with me?

Thanks!

I got a lot of grey hair on this issue about three years ago.  I
haven't touched this
for awhile, but it dawned on me that I really didn't need WRF HGT data for
my topo data, and I stumbled across something called "readglobe"

http://grib2v5d.sourceforge.net/readglobe/readglobe.html <http://grib2v5d.sourceforge.net/readglobe/readglobe.html>

which allowed me to produce hi-res topo files for my hi-res simulations from
some other DEM's.

If this is of potential interest to you, I can try to excerpt my notes for you.
