[wrfems] WRF BUFR/BUFKIT to display on D2D

[Brian Guyer]

Tony,

We are also having the same problem with the WRF soundings in the volume 
browser.  I have spent considerable amounts of time editing the 
wrfpost_cntrl.parm file with no luck.  We have submitted a couple 
questions to the AWIPS list and the WRF list with no replies.  There are 
quite a few other fields from the volume browser that we cannot display 
as well.  When we make changes to the parm file there seems to be no 
corresponding changes to fields available in D2D.  Let us know if you 
figure it out.

Brian
