19990909: Missing GOES-10 imagery

OK.... great. Sounds like your areainfo program was updated last year then.
That makes since because you probably would have been missing GOES West
images for a lot longet time.

>> Pete, 
>> I ran:
>> notifyme -v -l - -o 3600 -f MCIDAS -h fujita.afit.af.mil

>> and see for this hour:
>> 1287354 19990909151648.309  MCIDAS 000  LWTOA3 133 DIALPROD=U5 99252
>> 151618
>> 2347797 19990909151700.556  MCIDAS 000  LWTOA3 123 DIALPROD=U9 99252
>> 151619
>> 
>> The files AREA012x are GOES-10 visible images, and AREA013x are
>> GOES-10 ir images.
