"Code 37 is not supported" Error when reading NEXRAD Level 3 files

[turbulentlens]

Hello,

I'm getting this odd error when trying to read untarred NEXRAD L3 files acquired through the NCEI Archive. Any help with the workflow of getting archived NEXRAD L3 files read into Pyart would be really appreciated. I've attempted to use NOAA WCT to import netCDFs of the NEXRAD files but I don't believe they're formatted compatibly with pyart. My end goal is to plot the KHGX radar with the TRACER C-Band.

Hi @jpena9! I am not familiar with message code 37, I'll discuss with @mgrover1 on this to see what the error entails.

Hi @jpena9, I believe the error results from trying to read an unsupported product (due to the file not being in a radial image message format). See line 866 of pyart/io/nexrad_level3.py Best, Jason
