Adding Custom Radars
1) Start by opening Notepad or any other text editor.
2) Insert the radar name and coordinates (Below are radars you can get data for via AllisonHouse). Then save as "customradars.gis" (make sure there is no .txt at the end) somewhere on your computer. Do NOT save in the GR2Analyst program directory.
