Subject: McIDAS - Solaris/SPARC - NLDNDISP OUT=PLO fails

Institution: Bowdoin College
Package Version: 7.806
Operating System: Solaris/SPARC
Hardware Information: Ultra10

Inquiry: My users report that they can't get McIDAS to LIST NLDN data
with NLDNDISP OUT=LIS.  No matter what map or even coordinates are
specified it always returns that there is no data.  Yet, the same
command with OUT=PLO works fine and plots the data.  I have reproduced
this issue on my workstation running McIDAS 7.80 on Solaris8/SPARC.
Here is a debug output:

Hi John,

No, not yet, but this is now very close to the top of my todo list.
I hope to have this fix incorporated into a McIDAS addendum by early
next week.

Sorry for the delay...

Tom,

I'm waiting to get some fresh NLDN data (the feed has been dead so far 
today).  As soon as I do, I'll let you know how it goes.

Tom,

Now that there is some data, we've tested the fix and so far so good!
Thanks for all the work!
