QuickScat HDF Files

I am attempting to read in a QuickScat HDF file (version 4.1r3).
According to the NCL documentation, NCL can read in HDF files of this
type. However, I am getting the following error:

 NCAR Command Language Version 4.2.0.a032
 The use of this software is governed by a License Agreement.
 See http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/ for more details.
fatal:An internal error has occurred. The file format requested does not
appear to be supported, could not open (QS_XWGRD3_2003120.20031231631.hdf)

Here is a link to the HDF file:

ftp://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/ocean_wind/quikscat/L3/data/2003/QS_XWGRD3_2003120.20031231631.Z

I know that QuickScat data can be manipulated by NCL based on previous
discussions in the NCL user forum. Your help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Scott Capps
