[IDV #ZTD-112359]: loading focal mechanism data

Matthew & John,

For example, with respect to column A, 2nd row

"2/12/1977      49:16.0"

Where is the hour?

Are we missing something obvious?

Best,

Unidata IDV Support


> Column A: date and hour, B: Latitude, C: Longitude, D: altitude (km), E: 
> magnitude, F: strike, G: dip, H: rake
