The syntax to force lat/lon labels is very specific:

contour/set/.... variable
ppl xfor,(i5,''lon'')      ! or lonw for longitudes positive west
ppl yfor,(i5,''lat'')
ppl contour

The syntax is *exactly* as shown. Note the two sets of single 
quotes around lon or lat. Also note that "i5" must be specified
as shown. The only variation possible is to use "lonw" instead
of "lon" for longitudes positive west. (I think you can also use 
"lone" to force longitudes to be interpreted as positive east).

If you want to prevent degree/hemisphere marks, then specify:

ppl xfor,(f4.1)
