Scott,

You're not asking for the underlying RIDGE maps and I don't think they're directly available. All you're asking for below is the N0R (base reflectivity, 0.5deg elevation) GIF.I honestly have not looked at where it might put the temporary image.

You should use local (or online) maps to get cartography.

I'm having a little difficulty viewing NWS maps.  I've created a .geo
file in my maps/Online directory which looks like this:
URL     http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0R/JGX_N0R_0.gif
TIEPOINT        1       1       -85.910617      35.020961
TIEPOINT        600     550     -80.782832      30.320491
IMAGESIZE 600 550
REFRESH 300
TRANSPARENT 0x000000000
#OPTIONAL PARAMS
GAMMA 2
#CONTRAST 0.5
#NEGATE
#EQUALIZE
#NORMALIZE
#LEVEL
#eof

It seems I'm missing something fundamental when I try to view the map.
 It seems xastir doesn't fetch the map and it won't display the gif in
the same directory.  My user running xastir has read+write permissions
to the online directory, also.

Can anyone point to a how-to or provide some assistance in troubleshooting this?

Thanks much,
Scott, N4CI
