    Dear all,

    I have been trying to read TMI / TRMM data produced by SSMI with NCL and I
    am not getting anywhere. The data is in binary "direct" access and has
    dimensions: (/1440,320,7,2/). I have tried using commands such as
     myvar=fbindirread(filename,0,(/1440,320,1,1/),"byte")
    or
    myvar = cbinread(filename,(/1440,320,7,2/),"byte")
    but I keep on getting values such as 376, when I know that all the values
    should be between 0 and 255.

    Has anyone managed to read TRMM data with NCL?

    Best regards, Marjolaine.
