Catching up after 3 weeks or so of spotty e-mail and just plain too much
work. I've gotta fix it as it's now attracted some other attention. I
couldn't figure out what was causing the problem, but could confirm that
there was one. You're talents allowed coding around it. Other users
aren't that good/smart and are really upset sometimes.
I'll report when I get a few results.
Thanks, however, for taking the pressure off me.

The real distressing problem here is, we don't change anything and the

output.
I'll be in Boulder in a month or so, working with the developers and
getting some additional training. I'll get with them and see what they
think.
Another way to handle this problem Gerry is just not to fix it.
We've coded around it now, so the default transparent colors in the
WMSRadar.geo file cover the changing background. If other colors
appear, we can add yet more transparent values to the .geo.
