Description
WAVE_165.128_1x1.grib

165.128

10 metre U wind component

. regular lat-long grid

. grid spacing free for the contributor to chose

. not need to be global


eg:

gridDefinitionTemplateNumber = 0 [Latitude/longitude]
latitudeOfFirstGridPoint = 90000000
longitudeOfFirstGridPoint = 0
latitudeOfLastGridPoint = -77500000
longitudeOfLastGridPoint = 359500000
iDirectionIncrement = 500000
jDirectionIncrement = 500000

I think I should  use :

102 Specific altitude above mean sea level

in section  4.
