To implement the test fix, please do the following: <as 'mcidas' on the machine(s) exhibiting the problem> cd ~mcidas/mcidas2004/data mv WXCORE.PRD WXCORE.PRD.v2004 cd ~mcidas/mcidas2004/src mv wwdisp.c wwdisp.c.v2004 mv wwlist.c wwlist.c.v2004 ftp ftp.unidata.ucar.edu <user> anonymous <pass> address@hidden cd pub/mcidas/src get wwdisp.c get wwlist.c cd ../data lcd ../data get WXCORE.PRD quit make wwlist.k wwdisp.k rm ~/data/WXCORE.PRD rm ~/bin/wwlist.k rm ~/bin/wwdisp.k ln wwlist.k ~/bin ln wwdisp.k ~/bin cd ../data ln WXCORE.PRD ~/data SSEC has implemented a fix in their latest version of both routines' source code, but their version is newer than the one in v2004x, and I would rather not try and upgrade you to that just yet. Please let me know if you have any problems doing the upgrade, and if the code modifications fix your problem.
