Clint,

I wish I hadn't hit the send button so fast on my previous email.  I
see from your routing table that you are not decoding the MD files
from the Unidata-Wisconsin datastream:

/home/mcidas/workdata% route.k LIST
S Pd         Description         Range       Last      Received  Post Process C
- -- ------------------------- --------- ------------ ---------- ------------ -
  ...
s MA Surface MD data            default  MDXX0010     98321 2333 SFC.BAT      3
s RM Mandatory Upper Air MD da  default  MDXX0020     98321 1433 MAN.BAT      3
s RS Significant Upper Air MD   default  MDXX0021     98321 1435 SIG.BAT      3
  ...
s UX Mollweide Composite IR     100-109      none        none    MOLL.BAT     3
s UY Mollweide Composite H2O    110-119      none        none        none     3

Given that this is the case, you do not need to run BROADCAST.BAT from
mcscour.sh.  I commented it out for you (~mcidas/scripts/mcscour.sh).
If this was the cause of your losing REDIRECTions, commenting the
entry in mcscour.sh should do the trick.

The other thing I noticed in your routing table was that you are not
decoding the Mollweide global IR or water vapor products.  These are
an interesting way to get a quick look at the global cloud cover.

If you want to get them, I suggest that you turn them back on:

cd ~mcidas/workdata
route.k REL UX UY

This will automatically enable the creation of the Mollweide global
topography-IR composite (product code N6).

Got to go home 'cause it is after 8 pm.  Later...
